When Xi Xiuyuan walked back to the mansion, he kept thinking, if Xichi came back to live, one day Cheng Wang would suddenly enter his room and see him making out with the emperor on the bed - just like what he saw this morning, Cheng Wang would Won't you vomit blood from anger?

In any case, he still wanted to tell Xi Chi about this.

When he just entered the mansion, he happened to see Zhong Ye coming out alone, so Xi Xiuyuan hurriedly saluted: "Your Majesty."

Zhong Ye glanced at Xi Xiuyuan with cold eyes, turned and left without saying anything.

After the people left, Xi Xiuyuan stood up from the ground, and he patted the dust on his knees.

Zhong Ye is an aristocrat, arrogant and defiant. This is his usual style. Xi Xiuyuan and the other ministers have long been accustomed to the unpredictable and unpredictable temperament of the emperor.

It's just——Xi Xiuyuan was very curious, how could Xi Chi endure Zhong Ye?Could it be that Xi Chi can really accommodate all things?

Xi Chi is still eating breakfast, which is very light, in line with Xi Chi's usual taste.

Xi Xiuyuan sat in front of him, Xichi glanced at Xi Xiuyuan lazily, and continued to eat rice cakes.

"I finally believe it now, but my father—" Xi Xiuyuan said, "He said he would break your leg."

Chi Chi let out a lazy "hmm".

Xi Xiuyuan smiled: "What are you going to do? Let the emperor solve this matter?"

Xi Chi shook his head: "The boat will go straight when it reaches the bridge. I'll tell my father. I think my father may be bluffing."

Xi Chi had a little conflict with Zhong Ye just now, so Zhong Ye didn't have a good face when he saw Xi Xiuyuan.

Zhong Ye gnawed at Xi Chi's body all morning, and Xi Chi only wanted to sleep, so he refused Zhong Ye's request.

Xi Xiuyuan saw a red mark on the top of Xi Chi's neck, as if it was sucked out by someone, no matter how high the collar was, it couldn't cover it, so he knew without thinking that it must be made by the emperor.

He didn't want to remind Xi Chi, so he just pretended not to see it: "Father asked you to go back to live."

Xi Chi was not surprised: "Okay."

Xi Xiuyuan's little bird flew out of the cage, and one landed on Xi Chi's shoulder, making two chirp chirps.

Xi Chi has always been fond of these little things, he has a kind and harmless aura on his body, the sun is already very bright, and the light shines on Xi Chi's body, Xi Chi's ink hair is not tied, and his white clothes are embroidered with ink thread Holding the bamboo leaves, there was a bit of rice cake on his snow-white fingers, and the bird bowed his head and gently pecked at the rice cake on his hand.

Looking at Xi Chi from the direction of Xi Xiuyuan, Xi Chi is really very beautiful, with gentle and compassionate brows and eyes, long hair that seems to have been soaked in ink, and muscles and bones like ice and snow, even with this appearance, he should be favored by the king pet.

Xi Xiuyuan coughed, "I'm off to deal with business."

Xichi ordered Xiaojing to pack up his things and go back.

King Cheng's theater building has been built, and the actors invited by the family are still singing today.

Xi Chi walked over slowly: "Father Wang is so leisurely."

King Cheng saw a little red mark on Xi Chi's neck at a glance, and he couldn't understand what it was.

In fact, King Cheng had already guessed it, but he didn't want to be sure.

Because for King Cheng, being with the king is like being with a tiger, and Xi Chi's friendship with anyone is better than being with Zhong Ye.

Now that King Cheng has reached the limit of his prosperity and wealth, he has nothing more to ask for, except that his two children can spend the rest of their lives in peace.

King Cheng asked the servants to dismiss the actors, and he beckoned Xichi to sit down: "I already have a good friend? How is he?"

Xi Chi smiled: "What do you think my father thinks about me?"

King Cheng looked at Xi Chi: "Male or female?"

Xichi said, "A man."

King Cheng didn't ask any more questions, he was worried that if he asked any more questions, he might get some great answers.

After a moment of silence, Cheng Wang said: "Can we separate? After playing enough, we will divide each other. The father doesn't look down on these, but he thinks it is ridiculous. I'm sorry for the ancestors. There has never been such a thing in our family."

Xi Chi shook his head.

King Cheng raised his hand. He hadn't hit Xi Chi before. When he saw Xi Chi for the first time two years ago, he thought he was a good boy. This was the first time he thought of hitting a child.

Xi Chi had no intention of avoiding it.

King Cheng remembered what King Yu said that day, and he finally put down his slap: "How long have you guys known each other? This kind of thing won't last long. Even if the Xi family doesn't force you, will his family agree?"

Xi Chi said: "We have been together for two years, father, I have my own considerations."

No matter what the final result is, Xi Chi has to make this decision now.

He thought that he should have liked Zhong Ye for a long time, since two years ago, but he didn't know what he wanted at the time, because he had never met him before, so he regarded this feeling as a strong friendship.

I missed it once back then. If we hadn’t met again, Xi Chi thought he would have missed it in this life. He would not stay in the capital, nor would he stay in any place for a long time. , anyway, is a person.

King Cheng didn't ask the other party's name and identity.

That night, King Cheng received a painting, which was sent from the palace. Zheng Ru came over in person late at night: "The emperor said that King Cheng should have seen this painting. It was in the Jinhua Palace during the Chinese New Year. King Cheng will know who the person is."

King Cheng opened the painting.

At that time, he thought that the person in this painting looked very similar to Xi Chi, but now that he looked closely, it turned out that it was really Xi Chi.

White clothes are more snowy, with a romantic figure, jade hand holding a fan, and a pair of smiling fox eyes staring at a certain place.

My son will never admit his mistakes.

King Cheng said: "Eunuch Zheng, please explain one or two things."

Zheng Ru smiled: "Mr. Xi and the emperor are both brothers. Because the emperor is a few years older than Mr. Xi, so Mr. Xi calls the emperor "big brother." Two years ago, Mr. Xi and the emperor met once in Weili Province. When they came back The empress has a heart disease."

King Cheng understood, and he put away the scroll.

Zheng Rudao: "There is no reason why the emperor can't get the person he likes. His Highness Prince Cheng has always been smart, so he knows what to do, right? Don't lose the trust of the emperor because of a child."

King Cheng nodded and said, "Achi, he agreed, how can I, the father, stop me?"

King Cheng always felt that he owed Xi Chi.

If Xi Xiuyuan liked men, King Cheng would have enough confidence to beat Xi Xiuyuan up and lock him up at home, but Xi Chi likes... After all, he, the father and king, failed to guide his children well.

King Cheng was about to put away the scroll, and Zheng Ru stretched out his hand to take it over: "This is not a reward for His Highness, the emperor said it, it was just for you to have a look at it, and after you have a look, the servant will take it back and return it to the emperor."

King Cheng: "?"

Just so stingy?

Zheng Ru laughed again: "His Royal Highness Cheng Wang should know what King Chen has done recently, right? It won't take too long for Mr. Xi to enter the palace. The servant is here to congratulate His Highness Cheng Wang. The Xi family is finally out. Queen."

Zheng Ru said these words with good intentions, but when he heard King Cheng's ears, he was not happy at all.

Although he accepted this fact, he still had a strange feeling in his heart.

Forget it...

Being a queen is fine too.

A few days later, in the early court, King Chen suddenly stood up and said: "Your Majesty, the Qin Tianjian has watched the sky at night for the past two days, and speculates that there will be a male queen in this dynasty, which will bring blessings to the dynasty. I think the second son of the Xi family is golden With a jade face and an extraordinary appearance, he is the right candidate."

King Chen has already persuaded many clans, and there is basically no opposition from the clan. The cabinet ministers are a group of old foxes. They know that King Chen must have the emperor's support for his sudden nonsense in the court. Zhong Ye is not listening to the ministers' advice. The emperor who remonstrated would definitely not be able to go around if he disobeyed his will, so none of the officials above the second rank dared to come out to object.

Seeing that King Chen was like this, King Rui also wanted to please Zhong Ye, so he stood up quickly: "Your Majesty, I think what King Chen said is very reasonable, and the second son of the Xi family is indeed suitable."

The two noble uncles basically represent the meaning of the clan.

The other ministers looked at each other in blank dismay, even if some were confused and didn't know the reason, they didn't dare to act rashly at this time.

Standing at the highest place, Zhong Ye watched every move of the courtiers below.

His voice was indifferent: "Really? The matter of becoming a successor is indeed urgent. The candidate recommended by King Chen is good. I will think about it."

Usually, when the ministers mentioned the matter, Zhong Ye would scold the minister who brought it up with cynicism, but today when King Chen mentioned this matter, Zhong Ye actually thought it was good.

The ministers whispered to each other.

Zhong Ye said: "Don't make any noise, what else do you want to play?"

It was business as usual in the morning.

Two days later, a decree was delivered to Prince Cheng's Mansion in the palace, and Xi Chi was named Prince Chen and rewarded to Prince Chen's Mansion.

Chen, where Beichen is located, where the emperor lives.The emperor's intention to confer Xichi as the king of Chen is clearly revealed.

There are a lot of discounts in these two days.

Xi Chi casually rubbed ink next to him: "Your Majesty has a good plan, and there are not many voices of opposition."

Nine out of ten of the excerpts in the above are to persuade the emperor to make King Chen the queen as soon as possible.

Of course, there are voices of opposition, but the voices of opposition are too small to be ignored.

Zhong Ye replied with a vermilion pen, and a trace of sarcasm flashed in his long and narrow phoenix eyes: "Look, this is the emperor."

You don't have to say exactly what you think, and hundreds of people will do it for you.

Power will let Zhong Ye get everything he wants.

Xi Chi tilted his head: "Huh?"

Zhong Ye said: "When I was young, the imperial brother was in power, he liked to eat crabs, so he ordered the imperial dining room to steam the crabs, but the queen mother was domineering, she thought the crab meat was cold, and all the hairy crabs that were tributed to the palace were sent to the palace. Brother, as the emperor, you can't even eat a single crab."

Xi Chi wiped the ink off his fingers: "Emperor Ai is the puppet of the Sheng family."

Zhong Ye said: "At that time, I thought, as the emperor, I must be an emperor who makes everyone submit and fear, and all power should be held in the palm of my hand."

Xi Chi and Zhong Ye pursued different things.Although it was different, he understood Zhong Ye's paranoia: "You have done it now."

Zhong Ye pinched Xi Chi's chin, bowed his head and kissed: "Yes, I did it, so I got you easily."
