I was a salted fish in ancient times

Xiao Shan is a very sensitive person. At first he thought that Xie Chen's estrangement from him was an illusion, but after the meal, he felt that the illusion was no longer an illusion.

Xie Chen was indeed alienating him, perhaps unconsciously, because he tried his best to show a normal appearance, but many small details were different, and it seemed that he didn't want Xie Zhui to find out.Xie Chen seemed to have something on his mind, something to do with him?

The person Xie Chen valued the most was Xie Zhui. Could it be that he heard some gossip and thought he was not good to Xie Zhui?

Xiao Shan thought carefully about his recent life with Xie Zhui, and he thought it was pretty good.Now in the entire capital, who doesn't know that he and Xie Zhui have a good relationship, and there is no such thing as adding a concubine to make Xie Zhui sad.

If it's not a personal matter, is it a public matter?

But he and Xie Chen are in the capital and the other is in Yangzhou. Xie Chen's earl position is still empty, and he has no achievements and foundation in the court, and he can't hinder him.Moreover, Xie Chen's actions were very contradictory. He clearly wanted to alienate himself, but he was very dedicated to what he was investigating.

So what's going on?Is it because of Xie Zhui's face, or did something unexpected happen?

Is it related to the person who saved his eyes?

Xiao Shan thought about the situation in front of him in his heart, but he didn't think of a reason for a while.He was in a good state of mind, knowing that there were some things that he couldn't think of a result for a while, and he didn't get stuck in the corner.

At noon Xiao Shan and Xie Zhui stayed at Xie Mansion for dinner, because they drank two cups of wine, after the meal, Xiao Shan and Xie Zhui stayed to rest and prepared to return to the palace at night.

Xie Zhui slept a lot recently, he lay on the bed talking to Xiao Shan, and he closed his eyes and fell asleep not long after.

Xiao Shan watched him tuck the quilt for him, and fell asleep at some point.

After Xiao Shan fell into a deep sleep, Xie Zhui slowly opened his eyes, and after waiting for a while, he quietly got up and got out of bed.

He went out of the yard to look for Xie Chen directly. When he went, Xie Chen was sitting in front of the window, his body was covered with a cold chill.

Seeing Xie Zhui coming, Xie Chen hastily closed the window to prevent the cold from continuing to invade the room.Now Xie Zhui is different from the past, his body is weaker than usual, it will be bad if he catches a cold.

Xie Zhui looked at the quiet Xie Chen and asked bluntly: "Brother, why are you dissatisfied with the prince this time when he returns to Beijing? Did something happen to your brother? Is there any misunderstanding?"

He could clearly see what Xie Chen was doing, and it was because of this that he pretended to be asleep. When he found a problem, he had to ask it clearly.He knows what kind of person Xiao Shan is, and he doesn't want Xie Chen to be alienated or hostile towards Xiao Shan for no reason.

He didn't want Xiao Shan to feel the difference, he wanted to solve these things before that person felt the difference.

Xiao Shan protects him, he doesn't want Xiao Shan to suffer, he also wants to protect this person.

Since the matter happened to Xie Chen, he naturally wanted to solve it. This was Xie Zhui's truest thought.

Xie Chen's voice was somewhat surprised: "What are you talking about, I am not dissatisfied with the prince."

Xie Zhui looked at him with hurt eyes, and he said: "Brother and I have lived together for many years. I know him well. When he tells a lie, the index finger and middle finger of his left hand will rub his thumb unconsciously."

Xie Chen was taken aback, and the three fingers on his left hand that were interacting suddenly stopped.

He smiled wryly and said: "Sure enough, I can't hide anything from you. But I'm not dissatisfied with the prince. I have some things to hide from you, but these need to be checked. Thank you for giving me some time, let me check it out."

"Is it related to me?" Xie Zhui was not moved by this family card, he continued to ask.

This is also what he can't figure out. It is completely unreasonable to be dissatisfied with Xiao Shan because of himself.

Xie Chen is very clear about how Xiao Shan treats him.

Xie Shen became silent, and Xie Zhui said: "Brother, you are my elder brother, Xiao Shan is my husband, and you are my closest relatives. If there is anything, the first person that Brother should not hide is me. "

"But..." For the first time, anxiety, helplessness and aggrieved appeared on Xie Chen's face, and he said, "It's not that I don't say anything about Xie Zhui now, but that it's very important. I don't know what to do..."

Before he finished speaking, there was a wailing sound of extreme pain from the backyard, and the sound disappeared immediately after the sound.

Xie Zhui was startled by the stimulation of this voice, Xie Chen said in a heavy tone: "Don't panic, it's...it's the voice of the person who saved me. His body is poisonous, and he will have seizures several times a day, as long as he survives the seizure It will be fine."

"What about you, big brother?" Xie Zhui's first reaction was Xie Chen, and the person who rescued him looked like this, so how could he save Xie Chen.What price does Xie Chen have to pay?

Xie Chen hated Xie Zhui's sharpness at this moment. He didn't want to mention this person, so he said: "I'm different from him. The Gu worms on my body have been removed. But he has been used as a test product with poison, and the toxins in his body Too much, and that's why it happens."

Xie Zhui didn't fully believe Xie Chen's words, after all, Xie Chen was hiding something.

An unspeakable sense of panic rose in Xie Zhui's heart. He had an intuition that if he figured out what Xie Chen was hiding from him, then everything would become clear.

Xie Chen said again at this time: "Xie Zhui, the prince must have heard the voice just now, you go and accompany him."

Xie Zhui wanted to say something else, Xie Chen said again: "You allow me two days, let me think about it."

He said this in a sad tone, Xie Zhui also remembered Xiao Shan in his heart, so he didn't ask further.But he still said softly: "Since elder brother said so, I will come to the door two days later, and hope that elder brother can explain everything clearly."

Xie Chen was a little helpless: "I said two days and you really gave me two days?"

Xie Zhui didn't back down: "Otherwise, big brother can choose to make it clear now."

"Okay, okay, two days is two days. Go back quickly." Xie Chen said.

Xie Zhui glanced at him again before leaving.

After he left, Gu Ning appeared in the room. He put a cloak on Xie Chen and said, "Why didn't you tell the truth?"

"Do you think I don't want to? He is pregnant with a child now, so I can't be too excited. I'm afraid of irritating him. He is my only relative. If I hurt my body because of this, I will regret it for the rest of my life."

Gu Ning: "But what if you delay for two days?"

"It can be counted as a day, and I want to see it." See what Xie Chen didn't say, Gu Ning has been with him for a long time, and knows what he didn't finish.

Xie Chen wanted to see Xiao Shan's attitude. Xie Zhui often praised Xiao Shan for his intelligence. Although he had not been in contact with Xiao Shan for a long time, he knew him well.What's more, this matter still needs Xiao Shan's help.

It's just that it was too involved, and he didn't dare to speak easily.

When Xie chased him back, Xiao Shan was going out to look for him. The moment he saw the person, Xiao Shan went up to meet him, looked him up and down and asked, "Are you okay?" The scream just now was too miserable. I was horrified to hear it.

After he got up, Xie Zhui was always on his mind. Now that he was safe and sound, he was still very worried.

Xie Zhui held his hand and said, "No problem."

Xiao Shan looked around and said, "What happened just now? Didn't surprise you."

Xie Zhui shook his head: "I'm fine, that's the person who healed my brother... I don't know the details, but my brother said he was poisoned."

Xiao Shan nodded.

Not long after, Xie Chen and Gu Ning appeared, Xie Chen said: "It was an accident just now, the prince wasn't scared, right?"

Xiao Shan replied nonchalantly: "I'm not scared by my rough skin. Xie Zhui has a child now, so luckily he didn't startle him." He was really worried about Xie Zhui, and his tone was not very good.

Xie Zhui held his hand and said, "This noise can't scare me."

Xie Chen said softly at the side: "It won't happen in the future."

Because of this incident, Xie Zhui was not in the mood to stay, and it would be meaningless if he continued to stay.Xie Chen can always find all kinds of excuses for the various disharmonious things in the Xie Mansion, Xiao Shan has a bright eye, and will not speak out because of his own face.

Anyway, it's boring.

So Xie Zhui offered to go back to the palace first, and Xiao Shan naturally agreed.

Before returning to the palace, the news that the crown princess was abolished spread to every corner of the capital.

Xiao Jin mentioned this matter to him, and now that the news has been confirmed, he is not surprised.But in the end it was about Xiao Jin, Xiao Shan sent Xie Zhui back to the palace and said: "The abolition of the princess is not a trivial matter, it will definitely cause some turmoil, you stay at home, I will go and have a look."

Xie Zhui knew that he had a good relationship with Xiao Jin, upon hearing this, he hurriedly said: "Go."

Xiao Shan rubbed his head and said, "If you're hungry, eat something, don't wait for me to come back."

After comforting Xie Zhui, Xiao Shan turned around and left the gate of the palace.

But he didn't go to the East Palace, but turned back to Xie's Mansion.

When Xie Chen heard that Xiao Shan had come again, Gu Ning was applying medicine to his eyes.

Xie Chen sat up and wiped the medicine from his eyes and said, "You take him to the study, and I'll be there right away." To be honest, he really didn't expect Xiao Shan to come back so soon, he thought he would have to wait at least for a while, Or maybe the person won't come back at all.

Xie Chen tidied up and went to the study room. As soon as he entered, Xiao Shan slapped his face and said: "Brother, time is running out, I have to go to the East Palace to visit the prince in a while. If you feel unhappy, just tell me directly. Here It's just you and me, I don't want Xie Zhui to be caught in the middle."

Xie Shen was silent and did not speak.

Xiao Shan continued to ask: "Brother, what happened when he returned to Beijing this time, so that he got angry with me."

Xie Chen looked at him, there was still white silk in his eyes, this look was not a real look, but Xiao Shan could feel that he was staring at him.

Xie Chen said: "If I tell you, will you implicate others?"

Xiao Shan frowned: "Brother, if this other person is Xie Zhui, I can say that it is absolutely impossible. No matter what happens, Xie Zhui and I will face it and solve it. So I hope the elder brother will tell the truth and don't let us There was a rift between them because of a misunderstanding."

Xie Chen said: "My lord should know about my grandfather's defeat and my father's disappearance a few years ago."

Xiao Shan's heart skipped a beat when he heard this, and he said in a deep voice: "Everyone in the world knows about this, but if elder brother suddenly mentions this, could it be that he has found someone?"

Xie Chen nodded: "I found it." His tone was too calm, and it would hurt his heart if he was too calm.

Xiao Shan's brows were tightly wrinkled, and he asked softly, "But the one who was crying in the backyard just now?"

Xie Chen nodded again.

Xiao Shan said: "Since that's the case, why don't you go to meet Emperor Father?"

Xie Chen sneered twice: "He didn't dare and he couldn't. Now he's covered in poison, and he's been tortured so badly that he can't see the emperor at all. He doesn't dare to go either. He was framed by his own people who lied about the military situation. Before he was pushed off the cliff, someone told him that all this was the emperor's intention. Because the northern border army is also called the Xie family army, the people in the northern border only know the Xie family. The emperor. The emperor was afraid that the Xie family would become too powerful, so he simply planned to kill his subjects."

"Prince Li, you said this kind of thing, can I tell Xie Zhui? He is your prince now and has your children. If it was really an order from the emperor back then, what did you ask him to do? Do you continue to be together, or take the child to reconcile with you?"

Xie Chen's words are like a knife in the end, wanting to directly pierce someone's heart.

"There is someone here, who is it?" Xiao Shan's eyebrows jumped, and he frowned and asked in a cold voice.

He didn't deny it for the emperor immediately because he didn't know the inside story, and he didn't deny Xie Chen's words immediately because he didn't know the truth.

It is useless to say everything with words, and everything must be based on evidence.

Therefore, he had to ask who this person was.
