It's better to fall in love than seize the heir

"Still thinking about Xu Jin?"

Most of the seats in the academy were full, and the students opened their textbooks one after another, waiting for the morning recitation later.Liang Yan rubbed the cover of the book unconsciously, looked at Shen Jinghe's slightly shaky face and suddenly said.

Shen Jinghe was silent for a moment, then shook his head slightly.In the past three days, he could occasionally notice that Xu Jin was looking at him from a distance, but every time he turned his head to meet his eyes, Xu Jin would run away in panic.

Now that he has let out what he said before, naturally he won't meddle in other people's affairs.However, thinking of the scene of that day, it is inevitable that I will still sigh and feel a little bit of emotion.

"It's just a feeling of mourning for his misfortune and anger for his indisputability."

He told Liang Yan what happened that day without reservation, and perhaps he also felt a little bit confused about whether he did the right thing or not.He still remembered that after Liang Yan listened to him silently and seriously, he just held his shoulder slightly and said softly, "You have done well enough."

No explanation, no remonstrance, just a plain affirmation.However, it was such a simple sentence that made his heart, which was a little dull, lighten suddenly.

Shen Jinghe turned his head with one hand and looked intently at Liang Yan, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.Although Liang Yan didn't know what he thought of that made him feel better suddenly, but when he saw that the gloomy expression on the face of the person in front of him disappeared, he didn't want to pursue it any further, but he calmed down and smiled at him comfortingly.

The bamboo grove at the main entrance of the academy trembled and swayed slightly due to people walking by, disturbing the golden broken sunlight all over the place.Wang Qi, who was behind him, caught a glimpse of the suave figure gradually and clearly, and put on his iconic mocking sneer on his face, "Hmph, this illness really recovered very quickly."

Sitting in front of him these few days, Shen Jinghe has already become accustomed to him occasionally making remarks about people and things that he is not used to.However, relying on the backing of the eldest prince, Wang Qi didn't have such a high profile when he uttered evil words that the whole academy could hear, when did he only dare to mutter in a low voice like today?

Shen Jinghe raised his eyebrows, looked at Liang Yan who had also heard Wang Qi's irony, and knew who the visitor was.

"Sixth brother came to Taixue for the first time in the past few days, can you still get used to it?" The figure with a gentle smile gradually approached, nodded to the students who greeted him along the way, and walked straight towards him without stopping. Shen Jinghe came here, "I was a little sick a few days ago, but I couldn't catch up with the first day when the sixth brother came here, otherwise I could take you around for a while."

When he passed by Wang Qi's seat, he saw that Wang Qi's face seemed to be frozen with a layer of ice, but he closed his mouth tightly and did not speak again.Shen Jinghe shook his head almost invisibly, pretending to feel pity for himself in his heart - he is also a prince, when Wang Qi yelled at him on the first day, he was not as polite as today.

Thoughts just flashed by, Shen Jinghe got up immediately, a warmer smile appeared on his lips to return the salute, "I'm sorry, Brother Sanhuang, everything is fine. Brother Sanhuang, I don't know if your body has recovered? "

Shen Zhuomin smiled blissfully, with a calm expression on his face, "It's just a minor ailment that's nothing to worry about. You are good at work and hard at work. Now is a good time for my generation to work hard. How can I be ashamed?" Did you waste your studies because of this discomfort?"

Shen Jinghe was immediately in awe, "Brother Sanhuang has a strong heart, he really can be a role model for my generation."

The conversation continued in this friendly and harmonious atmosphere, until Xuezheng, who led the students to start the morning recitation, entered the courtyard.After Shen Zhuomin bid farewell to him with a little regret, Shi Shiran returned to his seat, and Shen Jinghe was able to sit down and catch his breath.

"Bah, I'm used to putting on airs all day long, so I don't think it's so bitter to say this!" Just as the third prince left, Wang Qi cursed again in a low voice.Shen Jinghe couldn't help but let out a little smile, for the first time he took his words seriously in his heart.

The morning recitation of Taixue has always been read by several scholars in turn. Today it is the student's turn to be serious. Outline, two hours passed quickly amidst the rustling of notes from the crowd.

"That's it for today, all students still need to study hard when they go back." Xuezheng carefully closed the book and stepped out of the courtyard with a serious face.

With his departure, the solemn atmosphere suddenly relaxed, chatting and laughing sounded in the academy again.The crowd left in twos and threes, but Shen Zhuoxuan walked quickly over the crowds pouring out, "Sixth Brother, do you want to go to the Chengwen Hall to review your homework later?"

Shen Jinghe smiled and waved at him, "Chen Xuezheng will talk about couplets of poetry in his class later, I would like to go and listen to it, if you are not good at Chengwen Museum, then go tomorrow."

During the words, Shen Zhuoxuan had already stepped forward, and there was a trace of solemnity on his handsome face.Shen Jinghe knew that he was worried that the third prince would get into trouble if he was alone after returning to the imperial school, so he couldn't help but feel a little warm in his heart.

He lowered his eyes and said to Shen Zhuoxuan in a low voice: "Fifth brother, don't worry, I know it well."

Shen Zhuoxuan's face was still not relaxed, "I understand that you have always had ideas, but the third brother is completely different from the first brother..." He sighed slightly, without any further persuasion, looked at Liang Yan and asked, "Liang Can the little general go to the Chengwen Museum together?"

Liang Yan stood upright on the spot, and cupped his hands without hesitation, "Thank you, Your Highness, for your kindness, Liang Yan sympathizes." As he spoke, he glanced at Shen Jinghe beside him without revealing any trace, "However, Liang Yan just I made an appointment with His Highness the Sixth Highness to attend Chen Xuezheng's class together, so I'm afraid I won't be able to go to Chengwen Museum either."

Shen Jinghe glanced at him in surprise—didn't he just say that he was going to Xiyuan to practice martial arts?

He was still in a daze, but Shen Zhuoxuan was relieved and smiled, "That's good, with you by Sixth Brother's side, I feel much more at ease."

"Fifth brother..." Shen Jinghe was dissatisfied, why did these words sound more and more like saying that he is a child who needs others to worry about?

Liang Yan glanced at him with a smile, then nodded calmly at Shen Zhuoxuan, "Don't worry, Fifth Highness, Liang Yan will take good care of Sixth Highness."

Shen Zhuoxuan gave a few more instructions before leaving.After seeing him off, Shen Jinghe walked side by side with Liang Yan in the deep bushes along the winding path supported by flowers and trees.Shen Jinghe looked at Liang Yanguo with a really cold face and followed him every step of the way. He looked like he would beat him up and throw him out if anyone dared to approach him. His eyebrows jumped, but he still couldn't help being laughed angrily. .

"What do you look like?"

Liang Yan saw his eyes shining with a thin layer of unwillingness and anger, and felt as if he saw a kitten waving its paws and ready to pounce on someone at any time.He hid the flashing smile in his eyes, tilted his head calmly, and stretched out his hand to pick off a delicate flying leaf that had unintentionally fallen between Shen Jinghe's hair, "I have received the order of the Fifth Highness, and I will go to the hospital before the order. Come to guard the left and right."

Shen Jinghe squinted at him, "Why don't I know when you listened to Fifth Brother like that?"

"Your Highness Fifth is the prince, and I am a military general of the Yong Dynasty. Isn't it natural to listen to his words?" Liang Yan looked serious and confident.

Shen Jinghe gritted his teeth and said bitterly, "I am also a prince, how come I don't see General Liang being so respectful to me?"

Hearing what he said, Liang Yan couldn't help laughing, and his stern eyebrows and eyes showed some gentle shadows because of the smile.He put a hand on Shen Jinghe's shoulder, lowered his eyes and looked deeply into his eyes, "Your Highness Six really want me to be so respectful?"

Shen Jinghe was silent for a while, curled his lips and pushed him away, a little suffocated, "...forget it, you're fine as you are now." He murmured again, "It's cheap for you..."

Liang Yan let go of his hands, and looked at Shen Jinghe's figure walking in front of him in two hurried steps, as if he was slightly dazzled by Zhaohui.The light and soft green shirt seemed to dissolve into a piece of green bamboo like a lake, and the straight back of the young man was born with an unrestrained spirit that no one else could imitate, like the fresh and gentle autumn breeze.

However, every step he took was accompanied by malicious snooping and tit-for-tat malice.Those shadows that are about to move are lurking in the darkness, just waiting to stretch out their claws at any time to pull him, devour him, and make him fall into the boundless darkness of double shadows.

Liang Yan looked at him fixedly, the complicated expression was fleeting on his face.

A vague voice called softly in his heart, this young man should not have belonged to this turbid place in the first place.

"Aren't you going to continue guarding the left and right?" Shen Jinghe walked a few steps, but found that the people behind him hadn't followed up, he couldn't help but stop in wonder and turned around, his raised eyebrows were faintly teasing.

Liang Yan looked at his clear and handsome profile outlined by the warm sun, lowered his eyes to suppress the gloomy eyes that appeared for a moment, smiled lightly and bowed deeply, "Of course, Your Highness Sixth."

Afterwards, they lived in peace all the way, and when they walked around a clump of sweet-scented osmanthus, Shen Jinghe suddenly had a face-to-face meeting with a person who was coming towards him.

He stopped abruptly, and looked up at the person in front of him—this carefully groomed official robe, his posturing posture, and his slightly twitching face, who else is it if it's not Li Gongfu?

Li Gongfu didn't expect to meet him here, and after the first shock, he couldn't help but curse inwardly.After being ridiculed by the sixth prince's poem last time, the other Xuezheng, who didn't like him at all, always looked at him intentionally or unintentionally as if he was making a joke, and he was so ashamed that he didn't dare to leave his study room for several days. .Today, I managed to avoid others and wanted to go out, but I didn't expect to meet this plague god head-on on the way.

"Li Xuezheng, long time no see." Shen Jinghe looked at him with a half-smile.

"It's hard to worry about the sixth prince." Li Gongfu replied in a strange manner. Thinking of the embarrassment he made a few days ago, he was still a little unwilling. He rolled his eyes and began to think about how to save some face. "Where is the sixth prince going?"

"Students are going to attend Chen Xuezheng's class on poetry."

"Really? Chen Xuezheng's class is very good." Li Gongfu squinted his eyes and smiled shortly, "But listening to his class still requires some foundation. If the sixth prince is not in a hurry, you might as well let me make a match first. You If you can match, you can go there with confidence. I don't know what the Sixth Prince wants?"

Liang Yan frowned when he heard this, and was about to refuse, but was stopped by Shen Jinghe.He withdrew his hand in front of him, glanced at Liang Yan with a smile, turned his head to Li Gongfu and said confidently, "Please."

Seeing his haughty and determined appearance, Li Gongfu couldn't help but get angry, he calmed down a bit, squinted his eyes and said sarcastically: "The two apes cut off a tree deep in the mountains, how dare you ask a little monkey to see it?"

Using "saw" in harmony with "sentence" is mocking him as a little monkey.Shen Jinghe wasn't annoyed at all, he just curled his lips and quickly responded: "A horse is stuck in the mud, let's see how the old beast kicks its hooves!"

Liang Yan couldn't hold back a muffled laugh, and Li Gongfu froze for a moment, his complexion changing from green to pale.How could he not understand that the sixth prince was pointing at his nose and scolding him as an old bastard, but this couplet was perfectly matched, and the scolding was so natural that even if he was trembling with anger, he could only smash it to pieces The teeth swallowed whole.

"...The sixth prince is really talented, I still have important things to do, let's go first!" After hesitating for a long while, Li Gongfu finally choked out this sentence through gritted teeth, shook his sleeves and walked away feeling ashamed.

Shen Jinghe watched him bow his head and hurried away with a smile, and he did not forget to remind him kindly, "Li Xuezheng must watch the road under his feet, and don't accidentally trip his foot into the mud!"

Li Gongfu's back suddenly staggered, he hastily corrected the crooked high crown on his head, and without turning his head, he walked even faster as if fleeing.

Liang Yan shook his head with a smile, looked at Shen Jinghe for a while, and finally could only say helplessly: "You..."

"Tell him not to have a long memory next time." Shen Jinghe blinked slyly, and tugged Liang Yan's sleeve, "Let's go, he has delayed you for so long, and there will be no more seats later."

The two were chatting and joking all the way, but at the same time, in the weedy and remote courtyard on the other side of the Taixue, a tall figure was slowly approaching the thin young man who was huddled in the corner step by step.

Most of the wall where the vines were climbing wantonly had peeled off, Xu Jin's face was pale and trembling, he curled up his hands and feet with scars that had not faded away, trying to hide the panic that flashed away on his face, "Don't, don't hit me!" I... I have handed over my documents for today..."

"I won't hit you." The man had his hands behind his back, his expression was unpredictable, and the mottled shadows made it difficult to see his face clearly, "Not only will I not hit you, but I can also guarantee that no one will be seen in Taixue again in the future." will bully you."

Xu Jin was taken aback, looked up at him blankly, and opened his eyes wide in disbelief.The look of hope and longing gradually spread in his blank eyes, like a drowning person who suddenly saw a life-saving straw not far away.

"……Really?"

"Of course it's true." The man smiled slightly, his melodious and deep voice was extremely alluring.He lowered his head and stared firmly at the person in front of him, and said slowly in a persuasive tone, "As long as you do one thing for me..."

Xu Jin unconsciously clung to the yellow short grass on the ground, and the sharp blades of grass drew a few shallow scars on his fingertips.He closed his eyes and swallowed with difficulty, whimpered, his expression flickering with pain and struggle.
