Qi Huang

In the past, Xie Xuan used to make an important official like Li Jin unable to step down in front of many people, so he had to walk away with a flick of his sleeves.But today, the heads of the aristocratic families in Bianliang City are all in this small Qinzheng Hall. This young highness who has just shown his edge suddenly hides his wings and lowers his head meekly.

"My lord, please." Xie Xuan moved the teacup half an inch forward.

Li Jin sat as still as a mountain.

The tea in the tenth prince's hand was already completely cold, but Li Jin didn't cast a glance at it.A man-made puppet prince, loyal and inconsistent, is like a weed swaying in the wind, anyone can fiddle with it.

But Xie Xuan is different.

Li Jin gently rubbed the bottom of the cup with his thumb, thinking silently.

Before that, he had no impression of the thirteenth prince.only once...

At that time, it was the time of the next court, and Li Jin and his colleagues went down the 99 steps of the Ziluan Hall. At that time, he was in high spirits, and turned around while talking and laughing. juvenile.

He was stunned for a moment and asked his colleagues, "Who is that person?"

"Ah." The colleague waved his hand, "He, His Majesty's youngest prince. I heard that he lived in the Leng Palace, but he was brought by His Majesty's side to raise him for some reason. But he was used to being free-range with those eunuchs all the year round. The wildness has not faded yet."

"Wildness?" Li Jin asked puzzled, "What do you mean by that?"

"That's right..." The colleague covered his voice in the middle of the sentence, "This son is not the same as His Majesty the Benevolent Government. Don't look at him with a sweet mouth, but he only pleases those who are willing to please. When facing servants, he is like a little boy." demon!"

At this point in the gossip, Li Jin's aroused curiosity quickly dissipated.He has no interest in royal secrets, if he didn't think it would cause more trouble, he would have killed Xie Qingshan's prince long ago, leaving only the most manageable one.

Just before leaving, as if blessed to his heart, he took another look at the high city wall.

The boy is still there, but what he is looking at is no longer the 99 steps of Ziluan Hall, but Li Jin himself.That look, so innocent, yet so cold.

Li Jin didn't know how he offended Xie Xuan, he was as vigilant as him, even though Xie Xuan concealed it well, he could still feel a strong sense of disgust from the other party.

After turning his mind several times, Li Jin remained motionless, as if he wanted to sew the cushion under the seat to his double strands.

Xie Xuan smiled slightly, his eyes sank, and they fell on Li Jin's hand wearing a finger puller.

"It seems that my lord is still angry at my recklessness that day. It's really a coincidence that I happened to meet a eunuch who had sex with a court lady that day, in broad daylight, and in the harem, for nothing. It's inevitable to get angry. Xinglan deeply apologizes to Master Li."

He opened his mouth leisurely, and his voice sounded like beads falling to the ground, lingling.

"It's fine to do some things in the dark. If it's on the table, it's no wonder that I used some thunderous tricks. Say it, Mr. Li."

No one made a sound, and everyone regarded this scene as a rare show.After all, piercing someone with an invisible knife is much more interesting than facing each other with naked swords.

Ye Wenxu continued to watch his eyes, nose, nose and heart, thinking about when today's Hongmen banquet would end, so that he could go out of the palace to find his colleagues for a drink; Sweeping him up and down from the corner of the eye, looking at his eyes and turning around, I don't know what is going on in his mind; and the Queen Mother is one of the people who set up the stage, so naturally she won't stop the play before the end of the play; just The tenth prince, who has been out of the state from the beginning to the end, is suffering. He holds the tea in his arm for about a cup of tea, and his hand is about to break. Will this immortal Li Jin drink it or not?

"Oh?"

In the Hall of Qinzheng, Li Jin hadn't spoken yet, but someone was the first to speak out for him.

"It's so interesting. The eunuch doesn't even have such a thing, how can he have sex with the maid?" Qin Ting shook his fan loudly, "His Thirteenth Highness has seen it with his own eyes? Tell me?"

Xie Xuan: "..."

He is pointing fingers and scolding Huai here, Qin Ting, you are sick, right?

Seeing that no one paid any attention to him, Qin Ting was not discouraged, and continued: "Then what happened to the eunuch?"

"Kill it." Xie Xuan was expressionless and spoke quickly, "The eunuch not only refused to admit his mistake after being discovered, but also talked back. Not only that, but also endless problems, which is really annoying."

Du Yuzhi couldn't help but sneered and laughed.

After laughing, he realized that he was laughing a little too loudly. He quickly covered his mouth and coughed a few times in a feigned manner. By the way, he didn't forget to pass the teacup in front of his desk to Qin Ting's desk next to him: "Master Qin, drink tea."

Drink tea and gag.

Leaving the unnecessary eunuch behind for the time being, Xie Xuan turned his attention back to Li Jin and continued, "I wonder how Master Li is at chess?"

Li Jinyin was impatient, but because he was under the eyes of the Queen Mother, he was inconvenient to explode too much: "What exactly does Your Highness want to say?"

"My father's chess skills are superb. If there is a chance, Mr. Li can play a game or two with my father." Xie Xuan said calmly, "When my father taught me chess skills, I never dared to forget one sentence. For - traffickers and pawns can also move a general. At the two ends of the Chu River and Han border, it is not just the two who are playing chess, but all the chess pieces controlled by the two."

Xie Xuan leaned down and held the teacup in front of Li Jin again.At such a close distance, Xie Xuan's emerald green pupils were still bright, like a clear cold pool.

"Master Li, when playing chess, be careful of your back." He lowered his voice, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "Sometimes, the enemy's general and minister may not necessarily be the enemy."

Right and wrong, kindness and resentment, there is never an absolute thing.Li Jin was eager for quick success in establishing the prince because the queen mother's power gave him great oppression.And the ancients thousands of years ago knew that the praying mantis caught the cicada and the oriole was behind, so how could Li Jin not know?

Without Xie Xuan's reminder, Li Jin will find out sooner or later.

Coincidentally, not long after, the retainers of the Li family who had just disappeared quietly sneaked back.He clung to Li Jin's ear, said a few words eagerly, and saw that Li Jin's face was like rice paper soaked in ink, and the ink was overwhelmingly covering his entire face.

Li Jin stood up, intending to say goodbye to the Queen Mother, but Xie Xuan stood in front of him.

The cold tea cup was extremely bitter, Xie Xuan drank it down without changing his expression, and raised the empty cup again.

"My lord." Xie Xuan said coolly, "Please."

Li Jin looked at him for a while, then suddenly seemed to see something interesting, and smiled for the first time after entering the palace today.

Porcelain cups collide and jingle, as clear as the first bell in the morning, welcoming the morning glow.
