admiration

Father Xiao nodded at the side and echoed: "That's true, Jiner, it's not that your parents are greedy for glory and wealth, and deceive you with this. It's just that they have been hiding it for so long. I discussed it with your mother, and I still let you recognize your ancestors and return to your ancestors." good."

Xiao Zhi shook his head helplessly, and said: "I am originally from the Xiao family, how can I recognize my ancestors and return to the clan? Don't my parents want me?"

"Why?" Xiao Niang asked urgently, "Father and Mother hope that you will stay with Wangxiang Terrace forever, so that no one will know about you."

Xiao Niang was often ill when she was young, and after giving birth to a child, she was depressed because of the child's death. She was so sad that she broke her body, so that she never became pregnant again. They thought that Xiao Zhi was a treasure bestowed by God, and peeing was regarded as a treasure. Naturally, he would not despise Xiao Zhijin.

If they were not afraid of being sorry to Xiao Zhijin, they might have kept it a secret for the rest of their lives, and they would never have said a word until they died.

"In this case, father, mother, I hope you can trust me once, maybe it's your intuition, I believe that I am your child." Xiao Zhijin held Xiao Niang's hand tightly, and he could feel the warmth through the temperature of his palm. Blood is thicker than water.

Xiao Niang managed to calm down, and now she was crying again, she couldn't stop holding Xiao Zhijin in her arms, and nodded desperately: "Okay, you are born by mother, mother believes in you."

Xiao Niang ignored Xiao's father's objection and insisted on bringing home the luxuriously dressed child from the temple. Over the past ten years, she has worked hard to raise him, and she has never complained. Until now, she has never regretted her decision.

Xiao Zhijin comforted the two elders, and rectified in the Zhuangyuan Mansion to ensure that no one of unknown origin could contact the two, then reluctantly left and returned to the Second Prince's Mansion.

There is still some time before Zhuangyuan's mansion is completed, Xiao Zhijin is not in a hurry, but it is Emperor Hongzhi's thoughts that make him worry.That is indeed a good way, but Xiao Zhijin dare not take risks, especially this kind of thing that cannot be 100% sure of Mo Zhichi's safety.

He was worried about Mo Yanchi, but at this moment Mo Yanchi was walking out of the palace with his head down, stepped into the carriage and left without looking back.

The fact that Huang Linzhi was greedy for ink is true, and the detour he took for the sake of the people is also true, but the special envoy found that the locust plague was not as serious as the legend said after he arrived at Wangxiangtai, and the number of Huang Linzhi's greedy ink was not quite consistent with the number of disaster relief.

Although the difference was not big, it was enough to make Emperor Hongzhi furious. Because the money was spent on the people, he spared Huang Linzhi's life and demoted him to a common man, and his descendants would not be allowed to be officials.

And Mo Yichi, who guaranteed him, was not involved, but because he didn't know right from wrong, he blindly covered up the offender, fined him half a year's salary, and thought about his mistakes behind closed doors.Mo Yanchi wanted to talk to Emperor Hongzhi, but was stopped by his cold eyes, so he retreated quietly.

Xiao Zhijin once said that the special envoy belonged to him, but looking at it now, he has already betrayed him.

Mo Yanchi received a lesson and understood Emperor Hongzhi's attitude.No matter how scolded he was in the past, Emperor Hongzhi always had a smile in his eyes, showing great kindness, never before, his eyes were as cold as ice picks, piercing his heart fiercely.

Having been together for three years, it would be a lie to say that they have no feelings, but Mo Yanchi never expected that the royal family would be so cruel, forgetting the past in the blink of an eye.

The No. [-] Scholar's Mansion was very close to the Second Prince's Mansion, so Xiao Zhi came back as soon as possible, dancing his sword wantonly in the backyard.

When Mo Yan was late, he was practicing ecstasy, every move was neat and neat, every time he swung his sword, Xiao Zhijin's gaze would move accordingly, his eyes were piercing and full of murderous intent.Mo Yanchi was engrossed in watching, engraving Xiao Zhijin's every movement in his heart, he didn't even know when people came to him.

Xiao Zhijin was originally concentrating, but found that there was a fiery gaze staring at him from behind. He looked back and found that it was Mo Yanchi.He had heard about the affairs in the palace, and he had already known about the betrayal of the special envoy, otherwise he would not have brought Xiao's father and Xiao's mother into the palace, and he would not have said so under his order.

He originally thought that Mo Yanchi would be sad when he was grounded, but looking at him now, he seems to be in a good mood.

The long sword was like a swimming dragon, without any warning, he leaned forward and landed on Mo Yanchi's neck. Mo Yanchi did not hide, but looked straight at him.

In fact, the long sword is still some distance away from Mo Yanchi, but Xiao Zhi was afraid of hurting him, so he didn't dare to play too much, so he put the sword away, and said with a smile, "Why don't you hide?"

"You won't hurt me, will you?" Mo Yanchi said firmly, as soon as the words fell, both of them were taken aback, never thought that Mo Yanchi would trust Xiao Zhijin so much.

Xiao Zhijin's expression was cloudy, but his heart was filled with joy. He pretended not to care, patted Mo Yichi's shoulder, and said, "Indeed."

Mo Yanchi pursed his lips and remained silent, his ears burning.Since last night, he felt that something was wrong with him, as if something was about to break through the ground, which made him feel uncomfortable, especially when he saw Xiao Zhijin, this feeling became more intense.

He frowned and thought, Xiao Zhijin saw this, thought he was worrying about the affairs of the court, so he comforted him: "You don't have to think too much, I will help you with the affairs of the court."

Mo Yanchi nodded thoughtfully, "Yes. Go and wipe your face first."

Xiao Zhijin was sweating profusely from practicing, and his clothes were half wet, and it was very uncomfortable to stick to his back, so he really should wash it.He said: "Okay, then you wait for me here, and go out to eat later."

Mo Yanchi was noncommittal, he stared intently at Xiao Zhijin's back until he disappeared out of sight, and he didn't come back to his senses.

It’s over.

He thought to himself.

It was indeed over, ever since the hug last night, or should I say earlier, Mo Yichi was unknowingly pulled into the abyss by Xiao Zhijin, and he was unable to escape.

He sat on the wooden chair in the porch, staring blankly at the graceful osmanthus trees standing in the courtyard. It was still midsummer at this time, and it was still early to leave the flowers, but the leaves were gorgeous green, which was particularly pleasing to the eye.

Xiao Zhijin changed his clothes, worried that he would wait for a long time, so he straightened his collar while walking, and when he raised his eyes, he saw the man sitting quietly, with a smile on his face, quiet and beautiful, like someone outside the world, out of reach.

The long corridor isolated everyone, but it couldn't hinder Xiao Zhijin's footsteps. He took every step slowly and gently, for fear of disturbing the peaceful young man under the sun.

The ecstatic young man seemed to have sensed something, and turned around with a slight smile.

Even though the cicadas kept ringing in his ears, Xiao Zhijin could hear his own thunderous heartbeat, which became stronger and stronger with his steps.

Mo Yanchi got up, walked towards him, and said with a smile, "Why is your face so red?"

"I'm... hot." Xiao Zhijin forced himself to look away, for fear of revealing his deeply buried feelings.

Fortunately, Mo Yichi is not a master of love, even slower than ordinary people, but he didn't notice anything unusual, and followed Xiao Zhijin to the gate of the house.

Recently, a new restaurant opened in Jingzhong, which is very prosperous, and Mo Yanchi likes to join in the fun, so he talked to the coachman and got into the carriage.Xiao Zhijin followed closely, and suddenly noticed something, stopped his movements, and looked back.

Mo Yanchi suddenly felt strange, just as he was about to speak, Xiao Zhijin came in with a rather gloomy expression.

"What's wrong?" Mo Yanchi asked.

Xiao Zhijin shook his head and smiled, "It's okay, let's go."

The coachman witnessed everything outside, but Xiao Zhijuan said it was all right, and he didn't want to interrupt, so he drove the horse forward with a whip.

Xiao Zhi didn't want to make Mo Yanchi worry, so he took the initiative to speak, "I heard that there will be a lantern festival in two days, do you want to come out and watch it?"

"Okay, I also watched it last year, but not as early as this year." Smart as ever, except for emotional matters, he is very sensitive to other things. He saw that Xiao Zhijin had something in his heart, so he didn't expose it. Follow his words.It's not just once or twice, when Xiao Zhijin frowned several times, he knew something was going to happen again.

For whom Xiao Zhi devoted all his heart and soul, how could Mo Yanchi not know.So when the rumors spread to his ears, Mo Yichi chose to believe in Xiao Zhijin, not for anything else, just traveling across mountains and rivers to find him, this friendship is enough for Mo Yichi to trust.

Xiao Zhijin originally thought that Mo Yichi was in a bad mood and didn't want to go out, but now he seems to see it a lot, at least he won't hide in the house after being reprimanded by Emperor Hongzhi.

The palace has always been unable to hide secrets, the news of Mo Yanchi's foot restraint had spread all over the capital, but the imperial decree had not come down, many people were surprised to see Mo Yanchi, but they did not dare to say more.

Even if there was an imperial decree, with Xiao Zhijin beside Mo Yichi, it was enough to keep everyone silent.

Mo Yanchi plummeted, but Xiao Zhijin was still rising.Those who always look aside don't understand that a courtier with a bright future insists on mixing with a prince of unknown lineage. Is it possible that it's true just based on an illusory childhood friendship?

They weren't three-year-olds, so they didn't believe this. When they met someone in the restaurant, they all looked at the two with inquiring eyes.

Xiao Zhi didn't dare to take too many actions, with the attitude of a courtier and a friend, he half moved and half let Mo Yanchi enter the room.The two behaved well, talking and laughing happily, but they didn't know that someone in the corner was watching indifferently, and sneered.

The shop waiter was a young guy who knocked on the door and came in, asked about the dishes and then left. During this period, he didn't even look at the two of them. As usual, he completely regarded the two of them as ordinary diners.

Mo Yanchi nodded in satisfaction, and conveniently tipped him some silver coins.

The little boy took the money, smiled all over his face, and ran more and more diligently.

Using people's money to eliminate disasters for others, the waiter ignored the gossip of those people after he went out, and immersed himself in his work, and was quickly submerged in the crowd without a trace.

In some restaurants there will be hidden ear rooms to hear some secrets, Xiao Zhijin is on guard, he never mentions the court affairs in these places, so he leads Mo Yichi to talk about his childhood.

The two of them had two or three years to reach the crown, but due to too many things they had experienced, they had to grow up. They were young and young, their brows were green, but their eyes were vicissitudes of life, like a sharp sword unsheathed, dazzling Dazzling.

Xiao Zhijin lost Mo Yanchi for three years, and missed his most difficult period. Naturally, he was a little regretful, but fortunately, the two of them are still sitting together and talking like this, just like before.
