In the blue sky, there are white clouds floating, and the sun shines on people through the white clouds, bringing warmth.

"Xiao Ling, where are we going?"

Shen Qing asked curiously.

Ever since he left the Wufu Inn, Shen Qing was very curious about where Xiao Ling was going to take him, but Xiao Ling didn't say anything, which made Shen Qing's curiosity grow bigger and bigger.

"arrive."

The moment Shen Qing tried his best to get Xiao Ling to speak, Xiao Ling had already stopped.

"Uh, this is..."

Shen Qing was stunned, completely unable to understand what Xiao Ling was going to do.

They are staying outside a spacious courtyard at the moment, and the gate of this courtyard is open, there is no one guarding the gate, and occasionally some ping-pong-pong sounds can be heard.

"Go ahead and talk about it."

Xiao Ling raised the corners of his lips, and without responding to Shen Qing's question, he dragged Shen Qing into the room.

"Young Master Xiao, are you here?" A big man who was wiping his sweat seemed to know that Xiao Ling was coming, and immediately greeted Xiao Ling when he saw him.

"How is the thing? Can it be finished?"

Xiao Ling asked straight to the point.

"It's almost done, Young Master Xiao, we will be able to start work at your residence in just two days." The big man responded with a smile on his face.

At the same time, he didn't forget to tell Xiao Ling about the progress of these days, and at the same time lead the way for Xiao Ling and the other two.

soon.

Under the leadership of the big man, they arrived at the destination, and the first thing they saw were craftsmen who were seriously doing carving.

It's just that the things they carved seem to be all weird characters that even they themselves don't understand.

Just the opposite of them.

When Shen Qing first saw the words engraved on it, he was stunned, then looked at Xiao Ling in disbelief, and asked, "Xiao Ling, isn't that..."

"Ah."

Xiao Ling nodded very simply, "Shen Qing, don't you always miss our 'previous' bathing pool? So, I asked someone to make a new one, would you like it?"

The "before" in Xiao Ling's mouth refers to the place where they lived before the accident happened in the last days, and these strange characters are the unique characters of the Shenqing race, recording all kinds of changes in the last days.

only.

It is precisely because of the weirdness of the writing that many craftsmen dare not accept it, for fear of causing trouble to the upper body.

"Xiao Ling..."

Shen Qing couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart anymore, and threw himself on Xiao Ling, his face filled with joy, "I like it very much, I like it very much."

"nice! You love it."

Xiao Ling raised the corners of his lips, and a touch of tenderness quickly flashed in his eyes.

"Uh, Xiao, Mr. Xiao, I forgot to ask last time, where is Mr. Xiao's residence?" The big man asked a little uncomfortable.

It seemed that he was secretly shocked by the relationship between Xiao Ling and Shen Qing.

"Zhennan Palace."

Xiao Ling patted Shen Qing's shoulder lightly, signaling him to calm down, then turned his head to look at the big man, and replied calmly, "I have told Director Fang in advance, when the time comes, you just come in directly, and someone will guide you."

"Young Master Xiao, wait, you just said Zhen, Zhennan Prince's Mansion?"

The big man froze in fright at Xiao Ling's answer, unable to recover for a long time.

"something wrong?"

"No, no." The big man who was awakened by Xiao Ling swallowed his saliva, and asked suddenly, "Master Xiao, are you the son who disappeared for many years and only came back?"

"Ah, I'm sorry, I was just curious for a while, I didn't intend to ask anything, please don't mind, Young Master Xiao."

"I'm."

Xiao Ling raised his eyebrows, "Is this strange?"

"Young one doesn't mean that." The big man smiled awkwardly, and before Xiao Ling left, he reassured him again and again, "Don't worry, my son, I will do my best to do what you asked me to do well. "

"Master, the two guests have left, why are you still standing here?"

"It turns out that the rumors circulating in the market are true. The Prince of Zhennan really has an affair with a man. No, I have to inform the First Prince as soon as possible."

The big man changed his humility just now, and walked in another direction with big strides.

……

Just one month.

Due to the deliberate actions of some caring people, almost the entire capital city was rumored to have an affair with the son of Prince Zhennan, causing Xiao Ling's reputation to drop to the bottom in an instant.

At the same time, all kinds of bad public opinion even described Xiao Ling as a perverse and violent person.

"Prince, if Xiao Ling knows that the rumors in the capital are related to us, will he be pushed to the other three princes?"

The eldest prince's confidant said worriedly.

"Hmph, so what? Father, in order to protect that little brother of the Qin family, hasn't he been doing the same thing as me? I'm just adding to the flames. If he wants to investigate, he can just investigate it." After this investigation, none of my three imperial brothers will be able to escape." Xiao Qiyuan snorted coldly, "His Zhennan Palace has always remained neutral, so let me keep it until the end."

"Eldest Prince, do you mean to prevent Zhennan Prince's Mansion from getting involved?"

"You're not too stupid." Xiao Qiyuan glanced at his confidants indifferently, and continued unhurriedly, "That's right, since I'm destined not to have the power of Zhennan King, they don't want to get it either."

Xiao Qiyuan stood up suddenly, walked to the window, and looked gloomyly at the civilians coming and going on the street.

"Although I now occupy the title of the eldest son, and I have my mother's family and the Pingnan Palace to help behind the scenes, but the Zhennan Palace is a serious problem. If Xiao Ling suddenly helps them on a whim that day, especially with I am the old seven who is on par with me, won't I be in big trouble?"

"What the eldest prince said is that his subordinates made a mistake."

The confidant hurriedly apologized.

"Okay, save the nonsense for later, what about the third, fifth, and seventh?"

Xiao Qiyuan asked casually.

"The third prince is still the same as before, flirting with his brothers all day long, while the fifth prince often hangs around with the civil servants. As for the seventh prince, he has been standing still since the last incident."

"Is that so?"

Xiao Qiyuan touched his chin meaningfully.

"Eldest Prince, my subordinates don't understand. The only one who can compete with you now is the Seventh Prince who also received the help of Pingxi Prince's Mansion. Why should you pay attention to the movements of the Third and Fifth Princes?"

"They don't have power now, but it doesn't mean they won't have it in the future, especially my third brother."

Xiao Qiyuan couldn't hide his ambition and continued, "Isn't my father also an idle prince back then? But now you look back, isn't your father's layout very elaborate?"

"Eldest prince, do you mean that the third prince is hiding in secret?"

The confidant shouted in surprise.

"good."

Xiao Qiyuan nodded, "With the lessons learned from my father, do you think I will still trust the third child and have no intention of taking the throne? I'm afraid he is just trying to reap the benefits of the fisherman with the attention of watching tigers from the mountains. How can I let him do what he wants?"

on the other hand.

"Cousin, why did you stop me from giving someone to Xiao Ling?"

The Seventh Prince Xiao Qizai frowned displeasedly.

"Because Xiao Ling is different from Xiao Junbo." Prince Pingxi's son Wei Yizhi shook his head and frowned, "Seventh Prince, if you send someone there, it will only backfire."

"But it's not all rumors outside..."

"The outside is the outside, and the Seventh Prince is the Seventh Prince, they should not be confused."

There was a hint of anger on Wei Yizhi's face, "You think you're the only one who can think of this? Xiao Junbo, you just took the lead. I've seen Xiao Ling before, and he will never be tempted so easily. people."

"Also, Seventh Prince, you had a great chance of winning in Qinzhou last time, so why did you run away at a critical moment?"

"Cousin, I have to do this too."

As soon as Wei Yizhi mentioned the matter of Qinzhou, Xiao Qize immediately faltered.

"It's a last resort."

Wei Yizhi glared at Xiao Qize with hatred, "Do you know that Dad and I tried our best to get Lu Chenghao and Du Chunsheng to Qinzhou in order to ensure that you can come back triumphantly and make some real military exploits?"

Wei Yizhi didn't understand, his younger brother was obviously a very smart person, why did he give birth to such an arrogant and arrogant prince like Xiao Qixuan?

If it wasn't for their help all these years, Xiao Qize would have been kicked out long ago with his temper.

but.

Even if Wei Yizhi knew that Xiao Qixuan was not made to be an emperor, he could only praise him.

Otherwise, once Xiao Qiyuan becomes the emperor, the first person Xiao Qiyuan will deal with is Pingxi Palace, and they will be in an extremely passive state.

The same reason.

One mountain cannot tolerate two tigers.

If the person who becomes the emperor is Xiao Qicho, they will also use tricks to get rid of Xiao Qiyuan and the Pingnan Palace behind Xiao Qiyuan.

"Okay, cousin, my father scolded me about this matter, so let's get over it."

"It's okay if I don't mention it."

Wei Yizhi suddenly walked up to Xiao Qize, and said word by word, "But you can no longer use your so-called tricks against Prince Zhennan's son on your own, if you force the always neutral Prince Zhennan's mansion to King Pingnan, By the way, my father and I will not spare you lightly."

"Good good."

Xiao Qize wiped the cold sweat from his temples, "I swear, I won't get involved, is that okay?"

National Teacher's Office.

"National Teacher, why did you come back? What about Yining? Didn't he say that he wanted to come to the National Teacher's Mansion by the way?" Without seeing Qin Yining, Xiao Qihan had a look of obvious disappointment on his face.

"The emperor just went to your servant's residence. I think your servant will not come today."

The national teacher Sun Shoujing responded slowly, and at the same time said to Xiao Qihan with earnestness and heart, "Third prince, I hope you can forget about the matter with your servant as soon as possible. It was just a deal between us and him."

"National teacher, how can I not know this truth, but I just can't let him go."
