minister guilty

In the early autumn, the third prince, Shen Qiaoyan, returned to the palace. Due to the death of his biological mother and his infirmity since he was a child, he lived outside the palace for many years to cultivate himself. The memory of him is very deep, Shen Qiaoyan feels as if she is detached from everything, calm and unpredictable.

In the Royal Academy, Shen Qiaoyan didn't like to talk too much with others, and she came and went alone every day, a dispensable existence, Shen Wenxuan and Qi Ran didn't take any action, because people who are not a threat are not worth their hands , although Shen Qiaoyan could be temporarily put aside, but Shen Lichen was like a sharp knife drawn out of its sheath, with a dazzling edge.

These days, Shen Lichen is getting more and more favor from the emperor Shen Yizhang, and from time to time he will praise him in the early court. The ministers in the court can't help but start to wonder whether Shen Yizhang intends to have an heir, and how they should choose between Shen Lichen and Shen Wenxuan. Of course, this is all just On the surface, Qi Family is in full swing, and Shen Yizhang is afraid that Shen Wenxuan will form an alliance with him. It is only a temporary measure to warn them with Shen Lichen. After all, Shen Lichen is only a 13-year-old boy, and he can't fight back.

Qimu has the military power in his hands. Although he doesn't understand the twists and turns of the court, he also understands the fear of the emperor, so he will not speak in the court as long as it does not involve military issues on the sidelines, because if he is not careful, he may cause trouble. disaster.

As soon as autumn came, Shen Yizhang proposed in the court that he would go to Yunyin Mountain for autumn hunting. All the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty had to travel and were not allowed to take leave, and all the students of the Imperial Academy could not escape either. After all, autumn hunting is an annual event held by the court large outdoor activities.

As the prime minister, Yan Wenbai had to plan a lot of minutiae, and he was extremely busy. He would go out every day before dawn, and never return home after dark. This reminded Yan Yueqing of Yan Wenbai in his previous life, who was also very busy. Day and night.

"Brother Yueqing, where are we going?" An Le's little hand was pulled up by Yan Yueqing, and she raised her head slightly and asked Yan Yueqing innocently. Yan Yueqing was carrying a crane bag with a mysterious expression on her face, "You'll know when we go."

The Royal Academy is on vacation today, so Yan Yueqing decided to take Anle to the night market. The night in the capital city is not as dark as imagined, but brightly lit. The streets are full of pedestrians, which is more lively than during the day. Anle stretches out his little head to look around. Feeling fresh everywhere, Yan Yueqing may not have felt such peace for a long time, and her mood was exceptionally good, until she met Shen Wenxuan and Qiran again by a very unfortunate chance.

In fact, it was Yan Yueqing who was discovered by Qiran first, and she yelled, "Yan Yueqing, who are you leading? It can't be..." Shen Wenxuan blocked the rest of the sentence before he could say it. , An Le is a stranger to Qiran, but she has a little memory of Shen Wenxuan. She looked back at Yan Yueqing, hugged him suddenly, turned her head and stared at Shen Wenxuan, her eyes suddenly became fierce, as if she didn't allow him to approach.

Qi Ran looked at it, and laughed, "Young Master Yan still needs the protection of a little girl? We won't do anything to you on the street." Yan Yueqing ignored Qi Ran's words, and touched the top of An Le's hair, her voice was gentle The outrageous: "It's okay."

"Mr. Yan, we met again. Is this the little girl from last time?" Shen Wenxuan smiled slightly at An Le's fierce eyes, and Yan Yueqing nodded. He still understood the truth of the smiling face, "Yes, her name is An Le."

"Anle, what a good name." Shen Wenxuan's eyes still stayed on Anle, and he didn't leave for a long time. He couldn't see the end with a deep glance, which made people feel very uncomfortable. Yan Yueqing tried his best to suppress this discomfort, and wanted to say goodbye to Anle. Turning to another place, but Shen Wenxuan spoke first, "Since it's such a coincidence, why don't we go together, I think Mr. Yan seems to have some misunderstandings about Qi Ran, so why not take this opportunity to resolve this misunderstanding."

Shen Wenxuan changed the subject and showed a handsome smile. Although his appearance was gentle, his eyes faintly gave people an invisible oppression, "Could it be that Mr. Yan will refuse me this time?"

Seeing this, Qi Ran also agreed, "Yes! Mr. Yan may have some misunderstandings about me. This encounter is really a good opportunity to solve the misunderstandings. Why not do it?" Yan Yueqing took An Le's little hand, All the emotions in my heart surged up, misunderstanding?He thought that there was no misunderstanding, but he might not be able to refuse to go with him.

After all, he had rejected Shen Wenxuan too many times before, and Shen Wenxuan, like Shen Yizhang, was suspicious by nature.

Since you can't avoid it, it's better to face it directly. Yan Yueqing nodded slightly as a response, "Okay, let's go together, but there is no misunderstanding between Mr. Qi and I, so naturally there is no way to solve it." An Le shook Little head, obviously can't understand their words.

Yan Yueqing walked in the front as soon as he spoke, and Shen Wenxuan and the others followed quickly. Qi Ran didn't seem to be annoyed by Yan Yueqing's words. On the contrary, there was a smile on his whole face, revealing a trace of weirdness.

"There is no misunderstanding? Isn't the matter of Shen Lichen just a misunderstanding between us?" Qi Ran suddenly said after a while, tearing up some things and putting them in front of his eyes, Yan Yueqing knew that Shen Wenxuan must be a bystander again, "The matter of the fourth prince , I don’t think there is anything to say.” Because he saw everything in his eyes, Qi Ran couldn’t explain it clearly.

"Yes, I did bully Shen Lichen, but not only me, there are many people who have done the same thing, or even worse than me, Mr. Yan, are you sure you want to settle them one by one?" Qi Ran's tone became a little bit Sarcasm, obviously not caring.

"Fix it? I don't intend to settle it. It's all the past. I pay more attention to the present and the future."

"So Mr. Yan means to stand by Shen Lichen's side from the beginning to the end?"

Yan Yueqing finally heard the most important question. I'm afraid they were waiting for him here early in the morning. After all, they still have to choose between Shen Lichen and Shen Wenxuan. In the last life, he followed Shen Wenxuan all the time. In this life, he will never let down all the affection, so He obviously already had the answer in his heart.

"I just prefer to stay with the Fourth Prince." Yan Yueqing's eyes were firm, and when he answered this sentence, he didn't look at Qi Ran again, but shifted his eyes to Shen Wenxuan. The past has become the past, what he wants is the present and the future, So say goodbye completely, let go completely, although it is difficult, it is not impossible.

Such an answer undoubtedly told Qiran and Shen Wenxuan that he would stand by Shen Lichen's side from beginning to end. Shen Wenxuan's eyes on Shang Yan Yueqing suddenly seemed to be pierced by a needle in his throat, which couldn't go up or down. It was extremely uncomfortable. Shen Lichen obviously had nothing, but how could Yan Yueqing choose him and abandon herself.

"Yan Yueqing, I hope you will always be like this, don't regret it." Finally, Qi Ran couldn't hold back anymore, her tone was a little gnashing of teeth, and she wanted to give Yan Yueqing a step down, but others didn't want to, then There is no need to put it on anymore.

Shen Wenxuan sneered, as if he wanted to ease the oppressive atmosphere, "It's just a casual chat, there's no need to be too serious. Mr. Yan likes being with Shen Lichen just because he thinks he is too pitiful. Do you think I'm right?" These words were addressed to Yan Yueqing, but Yan Yueqing was always tough and would not wrong herself or Shen Lichen.

"I'm not because he's pitiful, but I just want to stay by his side and experience various things together, that's all." The light reflected in Yan Yueqing's eyes, as if full of brilliance, shaking people's mind.

Shen Wenxuan made fun of himself, lowered his head slightly, not knowing what he was thinking, and stopped talking. Later, the few people wandered casually and separated, not because of Yan Yueqing's intention, but because of Shen Wenxuan and Qi Ran's deliberate departure.

An Le stayed quietly by Yan Yueqing's side until she noticed that Shen Wenxuan and the others had left and said, "Brother Yueqing, I'm a little scared of them."

Yan Yueqing had to admire the child's intuition, and could only comfort her: "It's okay, they are my classmates, and we won't see each other often in the future, don't be afraid, I won't let anyone bully you."

Only then did Anle feel relieved, and all of her attention was shifted to the candied haws not far away. The crystal clear candy and the bright red hawthorn, how can children not like it? Yan Yueqing smiled slightly, and pulled Anle straight to the place where candied haws were sold. Walking, the lights in front of my eyes were brightly lit, and a black figure suddenly came into view.

Yan Yueqing couldn't help but stop, held An Le's hand even harder, and murmured, "Shen Lichen."

Shen Lichen's eyes were as empty as ever, and the evening wind in early autumn hit him, making him look very thin. Yan Yueqing suddenly wanted to go up and hug this boy, just like Shen Lichen hugged him when he was covered in blood in the last life when he came to Qiyao Hall He does.

Yue Qing.

He wants to hear it again.

"Brother Yueqing." An Le tugged at Yan Yueqing again, then pulled him back to reality, walked quickly to Shen Lichen, and called out softly, "Fourth prince."

Shen Lichen saw Yan Yueqing a long time ago, or earlier than Shen Wenxuan and Qi Ran, but he has been silently following behind Yan Yueqing, and has not stepped forward for a long time, and now he has to pretend that he just happened to meet, "You are here too."

"Well, do you want to eat candied haws?" Yan Yueqing asked, but without waiting for Shen Lichen to reply, he quickly bought three bunches of candied haws from the vendor, and handed one to the greedy An Le, and another to the indifferent Shen Lichen.

Shen Lichen took the candied haws with a pious expression. He could hardly remember how long he hadn't eaten them, but when he was a child, he envied those peers who had them the most. "Would you like to go together? I think the lights in front seem to be more beautiful."

Shen Lichen held the candied haws and nodded his head heavily. He didn't want to look at the lights, but only wanted to see Yan Yueqing's smiling face. This kind of inexplicable and strange feeling suddenly exploded in his heart like gorgeous fireworks, echoing for a long time.

"Yueqing, can the Fourth Prince call me Yueqing in the future?"

Shen Lichen didn't answer immediately, but followed Yan Yueqing's pace, and after a long time, he called out softly: "Yueqing."

I don't know if Yan Yueqing heard clearly.
