The county horse is a medicine jar

"My son, I'm curious, in your mind, is Lin Sishen more important, or the supreme power?"

After lightly asking, Shen Xinxun's gaze fixed on Shen Qinghou's face. He wanted to see clearly even the slightest emotional fluctuation on Shen Qinghou's face, so as to explore what she was thinking at this time.

He wanted to know whether Lin Sishen was more important in Shen Qinghou's heart, or the power she had been plotting all along was more important.

It's a pity that the expression on Shen Qinghou's face did not change at all, it was still like the same calm lake, as if Shen Xinxun's question just now did not move her at all.

She raised her eyes slowly, met Shen Xinxun's careful and inquisitive gaze, and then smiled faintly, "I think, I don't need to answer Brother Four's question."

Shen Xinxun was a little frustrated, but soon he straightened his clothes, raised his eyes and said in a deep voice, "If you are willing to help Brother Wei, as long as it is what you want, Brother Wei can give it to you."

Shen Qinghou was still unmoved, she put down the teacup in her hand, and said casually: "Everything I want can be found by myself, how can I ask others for help."

Seeing that coercion and profiteering didn't work, Shen Xinxun fortunately carried the second prince out: "Then, have you ever thought about how he will deal with you if the second brother ascends the throne in the future?"

Seeing that Shen Qinghou remained silent after speaking, Shen Xinxun sighed lightly, and reminded: "He has always been afraid of you."

As soon as the words fell, Shen Qingwan suddenly raised his eyes to look at him, and asked back with a half-smile, "Don't you?"

After just a few sentences, the air in the room suddenly froze. Shen Xinxun gritted her teeth and looked at the indifferent cousin in front of her, feeling guilty and helpless.

At the beginning, because he was kind to Shen Qinghou when he was young, Shen Qinghou has been helping him secretly since he was exiled to Lingnan.

In the eyes of outsiders, Lingnan should be just a barren and cold land.In fact, in the past ten years, under Shen Xinxun's governance, Lingnan has already been turned upside down and has gradually become prosperous.

Not only did the people in Lingnan live and work in peace and contentment, Shen Xinxun even personally trained a capable and brave Lingnan army.This time, it was the rattan armored army that made great achievements in the siege of Anqing.

And a large part of the reason why Shen Xinxun was like a fish in water in Lingnan was because of Shen Qingwan's suggestions.Of course, he does have some skills himself.

Over the years, Shen Xinxun and Shen Qinghou have been exchanging letters in private. Shen Qinghou even appeared in Lingnan quietly and met with him several times.

Shen Xinxun originally thought that the reason why Shen Qinghou helped him with all his strength was because he felt ashamed and wanted to repay his kindness back then by sending him back to the capital to push him to the throne.

But in the depths of his heart, those deep hatred and ambitions did not fade away with the passage of time, but grew stronger and stronger.

His mother and concubine were not favored back then, and he was born dull and introverted, and he couldn't say pleasant and auspicious words, so he was naturally not loved by his father.No matter how hard he tried, his father would not even look at him.

Compared with him, it is the connivance of the royal father in every possible way for the prince who was born in the first place.

At the beginning, he was almost beaten to death by the prince, but his father only punished the prince to face the wall for a few days.But he just held the sword on the prince's neck, and before he even hurt him, the emperor broke his leg and exiled him to Lingnan.

The injustice of the father, the bullying of the prince, the grievances and unwillingness for many years.

All these dissatisfaction and resentment are like a box backlogged in the dark part of Shen Xinxun's heart, which is locked tightly by him, and other people can't see it at all.

Shen Xinxun conceals it very well, in the eyes of outsiders, he is well educated, reasonable and gentle.It was only when he was alone that the box in the dark part of his heart would be opened, and he could vent it unscrupulously.

No one can see through his disguise, except Shen Qingwan.

From the first time Shen Qinghou saw him, those beautiful eyes saw through his heart at a glance.

Over the past ten years of getting along, Shen Xinxun's love for Shen Qinghou has subconsciously disappeared, replaced by more and more obvious fear and alienation.

Shen Xinxun would never put forward conditions to Shen Qinghou, because he knew that his cousin, who seemed to be cold with hands and eyes, actually still had warmth in her heart.Shen Qinghou will let him get what he wants without him asking for conditions.

Until his ambition grows bigger and bigger, until the backlog of boxes in his heart is opened more and more frequently.He began to think about it day and night, wanting to return to the capital, wanting to take the place of the crown prince, and even take the place of his father.

So he made a request to Shen Qingwan for the first time, and that request was that he would return to the capital despite everything.

Shen Xinxun remembers that it was a snowy winter night, he and Shen Qingwan sat in the pavilion in the courtyard, and there was a vast expanse of whiteness in front of them, the sky and the earth were all white, only the two plum blossoms beside the pavilion were in full bloom. .

There is heavy snow falling in the sky, and the plum blossoms dotted on the branches are elegant and indifferent.The wine is being warmed in the charcoal stove, and the aroma of wine and plum permeates the entire pavilion.

He and Shen Qinghou were sitting face to face. Shen Qinghou was wearing a silver fox fur coat. The soft and white silver fox fur made Shen Qinghou's face pale and weak, and she poured the pot without saying a word. Wine, exquisite but slightly immature eyebrows and eyes, but the shadow of today can be vaguely seen, leisurely and indifferent like water.

Shen Xinxun held four-year-old Ling'er in his arms, the child was sleeping soundly in his arms, only showing his flushed face, smacking his lips occasionally, sleeping very sweetly and peacefully.

But Shen Xinxun, who was holding him, was not calm. He looked at Shen Qinghou, and after a long silence, he said leisurely: "Wu'er, I want to take Linger back to the capital."

Just such a cryptic sentence has exhausted his ambition.

Shen Qinghou's hand holding the wine glass trembled slightly, a few drops of orange wine splashed on her white fingertips, and then slowly slid down. The moment it fell to the table, the anxious Shen Xinxun finally got his own Answer.

"Okay, I'll take you back to Beijing."

With just such a simple and clear sentence, Shen Qinghou has been planning for him for four years, until now he finally agreed to send him back to the capital.

It's just that until today, that time was the last time Shen Xinxun saw Shen Qingwan.

Afterwards, Shen Qinghou never appeared in Lingnan again, only every year when Ling'er was born, he would send people all the way to send a few ancient books to Ling'er as a birthday gift.

This is also the reason why Shen Xinxun is so sure that Shen Qinghou values ​​and loves Ling'er.

After the defeat of the Lao army, he returned to the capital as he wished, but he also discovered that there were many people missing quietly around him, and without exception, they were all Shen Qinghou who stayed by his side before. Warlocks and swordsmen.

Without them, Shen Xinxun's strength would be greatly reduced.

The second prince is deeply rooted in the capital, he just arrived, how can he defeat the second prince with his own strength.He must get the help of Shen Qinghou in order to compete with the second prince, which is why he is afraid of Shen Qinghou, but he can never do without Shen Qinghou.

Because without Shen Qinghou, he would not have much chance of winning against the second prince.

After returning to the capital, Shen Xinxun used the excuse of visiting Lin Sishen to visit the General's Mansion several times, but Shen Qinghou always avoided him.

If he hadn't learned about Shen Qingwei's special treatment of Lin Sishen based on the previous information, he might not have seen Shen Qingwei even today.

Shen Qinghou turned around slowly, looked at the uncertain Shen Xinxun in front of her, nodded slightly and said: "Brother Sihuang, forgive me for being helpless, if Brother Sihuang has nothing else to do, then I will leave first. "

After saying that, she was about to leave. It seemed that she really didn't intend to help Shen Xinxun anymore.

Shen Xinxun's eyes turned cold, he clenched his teeth and said quietly: "If Lin Sishen's identity is exposed at this time, you might as well guess carefully, according to the emperor's temperament, what will happen to General Weiyuan's mansion? Or, if the people of the world know that the young master of the General's Mansion in their eyes is a daughter who steals a dragon for a phoenix, what will they think?"

Since Shen Qingwan didn't intend to help him, anyway, he couldn't beat the second emperor brother, so it's better to die.

Shen Xinxun knew that Shen Qingwei was not a person who would tolerate others threatening him, but now he had no choice but to see that Shen Qingwei cared about Lin Sishen, and there was only such a pawn that could threaten Shen Qingwei.

Shen Qinghou turned her back to Shen Xinxun, her dark eyes were instantly stained with a layer of icy frost, she slowly closed her eyes: "So, Brother Four is planning to use her to threaten me?"

Shen Xinxun stood up and stared at her, ruthless: "Don't you care about her? As long as you can help me win the throne, I guarantee that Lin Sishen and General Weiyuan's mansion will be unharmed."

Those repressed and threatening words drifted into Shen Qinghou's ears. She lowered her eyes and smiled ironically, and asked lightly, "Brother Sihuang, do you really think that you can threaten me with this?"

At this point, Shen Xinxun has no way out, he squinted his reddish eyes, gritted his teeth and said: "If you step out of this door today, the news that Lin Sishen is a woman will spread all over the world tomorrow." If you don’t believe me in the streets and alleys of the capital, why don’t you give it a try?”

The chill all over Shen Qinghou's body slowly spread from her thin body, and the room became a little colder in an instant, as if a cold wind had blown through it.

Shen Xinxun was startled, subconsciously took a few steps back, and stared at Shen Qingwan vigilantly.

Shen Qinghou turned to look at him, her thin lips raised slightly, but the smile didn't touch her eyes, she lightly parted her thin lips and said coldly: "Brother Sihuang's behavior is really shameless."

Shen Xinxun clenched his fists and straightened his chest. Facing Shen Qinghou's cold gaze, he looked straight into Shen Qinghou's eyes without fear, and said in a deep voice: "As long as I can ascend to the throne of God, I will do whatever it takes. cost."

Before she knew it, Shen Xinxun was no longer the taciturn but kind and gentle elder brother in Shen Qinghou's eyes.

The Shen Xinxun standing in front of her now seems to be no different from those greedy villains in the streets and alleys.

Even though he has a face very similar to Shen Qinghou's, even though he looks so handsome and gentle, his eyes full of greed and desire for power still make Shen Qinghou extremely disappointed for a while.
