Chapter 68 The Emperor's Light
In the sky, the sunset remains, and on the trees, birds compete for branches.

In the Orange Garden, Mrs. Xie waited expectantly for Xie Zhan to answer.

She introduced the young girl from the Yu family to him by name and surname, but anyone who cared about it could tell that there was a deep meaning behind it.According to common sense, when you meet for the first time, don't say how familiar you are, at least you should take etiquette into account, and you should also say hello.

But Xie Zhan has no heart.

His brows were full of impatience, and he raised his eyebrows and said "um" indifferently, and then didn't move again.

Ok?
Yu Jingyan's smile suddenly froze.

It has to be said that after the girl fell in love with the guy, every slight movement of the guy had special significance in her eyes.

Just now, although Xie Zhan looked at her calmly, she still felt that he was paying attention to her, and his eyes flicked over her face, showing some interest.But in a blink of an eye, he stopped his gaze and lost his emotions.

No matter how confident she was when she looked at him directly at that time, she couldn't help beating her heart at this moment: What exactly does he mean by this?

Obviously, she didn't know this Xie Liulang yet.

The mother who really knew him was extremely disappointed at the moment.

Facing Yu Jingyan, Xie Zhan said "um" indifferently, and the smile on Mrs. Xie's face couldn't hang up no matter how much she wanted to.

He didn't like the dignified and virtuous Miss Wang Qi, so she took the next best thing and chose a girl who had a prosperous family background and a temperament very different from Wang Zhiyi's.

Is it possible that we have to look for it again?

But there are so many girls of the right age in Jiankang City, who else can be more suitable for his identity than these two?
Mrs. Xie looked at the son who knocked on the folding fan and never looked at the Yu family girl again, the round fan in her hand was about to be crushed.

Probably, all the embarrassment and setbacks she had suffered in this life all came from his son.

Sometimes she even thought that in front of this son, she was forcing her to die, and he might watch her play with cold eyes without even blinking.

Fortunately, she has a good daughter-in-law, who has always been gentle and considerate. Seeing her mother-in-law staring and saying nothing, Mrs. Yu sent Xie Zhan away: "Liu Lang has just been on duty, so he must be tired? Follow me to see Yueyue, Relieve fatigue."

Yueyue is the protagonist of this banquet. She has just turned [-] days old, and when her wrinkled face has faded away, her skin is round and smooth, and on her delicate and tender face, there is a toothless and drooling smile, very attractive to a man. They love it.

Probably the purer something is, the rarer it is in the eyes of these officials who are used to turbulence.

With Yu's rescue, Xie Zhan was naturally happy to cooperate.

He really pretended to tease the newborn niece, and poked her little fist with the folding fan, his patience ran out after a while, and then he went straight to the male guest, and never returned to Mrs. Xie.

In this room, the two patriarchs Yu Liang and Xie Yuan had just finished chatting casually about the affairs of the court. Xie Zhan sat down, only to hear his father at the next table say: "He has a gentle temper and is loyal and upright. It's a pity."

Fu Yiyan's elegant image appeared in front of his eyes, Xie Zhan paused while drinking in his hands, and listened attentively to the movement.

But Yu Liang echoed, "Isn't it?", and the two closed the topic.

Afterwards, Xie Yuan talked with Yu Liang about the other side of the meeting, and finally asked about his family affairs: "Is Yu Sanlang getting better?"

Yu Liang replied: "I heard that there is an immortal in Jiuqing Mountain who has the most insightful eyes. He has done a hundred tricks and tested all spirits. My third brother has sent someone to invite him. I can go to Jiankang City in these two days. It must be of some use." .”

"Inevitably." Xie Yuan cooperated.

Hearing this, Xie Zhan raised his eyes to see Shi Qing who was standing straight at the gate of the courtyard.The action is fast.

The two patriarchs talked about Hui Yu's family, and then brought the topic back to Xie's family.

Yu Liang asked: "Grand Xie, I heard that Liu Lang wants to resign with the Fu family, but is it true?"

The Yu family is backed by the queen, and Liu Lang's marriage was arranged by a sage. Although he got the affirmative answer from Xie Zhan, this matter has not yet been consulted with the holy majesty. Listen to the words after adding oil and vinegar.

Offending anyone is fine, but, at least on the face, the Xie family should not be so embarrassing.

Therefore, Xie Yuan waved his hands and smiled lightly, "It's just rumors, there are too many things to do, don't take it seriously, Mr. Yu."

Yu Liang was surprised, "Really."

After he raised the wine glass, the corners of his lips curled up slightly, as if mocking.The Xie family is now somewhat concerned about the saint.

**
No wind, no rain, the sun is rising.

In the Daliang Palace, the golden glazed tiles shine brightly in the sun.The two dragons on the eaves, with golden scales and armor, are vivid and seem to want to fly into the sky.

Contrary to this vigorous scene, is the look of the young emperor in Qinzheng Hall.

At this moment, under the red pillar circling a lifelike golden dragon, Emperor Mu Andi was sitting here, lying beside him with a long sword unsheathed, and next to him was sitting on his knees, who had been fighting with the new emperor for half a night. Tim.

The two sat for a long time, and the air was still and thick.

Seeing that the time for court was approaching, Chen Tian had no choice but to say, "Your Majesty, take care of the dragon's body."

Emperor Mu Andi squinted his eyes and looked at the servants waiting outside the palace gate, the sun was shining brightly on them.

It was very similar to the light that he saw on the heads of several great families on the day his father left.

The brighter they are, the darker his Chen family will be.

Just like now, the light of his Chen family dimmed another inch.

After a long while, Emperor Mu Andi said in a hoarse voice, "Mr. Nanjun...a lavish burial."

This was the whole night, the first sentence Mu Andi said, Chen Tian secretly raised his eyes and glanced at him.

The emperor has a calmness much higher than this age.Although the eyes are tired, they can't hide their original sparkle.Like a dormant cheetah, he will pounce forward at the first chance and tear his prey apart.

Chen Tian warned: "Fu Shangshu will be imprisoned, and at this moment, the Lord of Nanjun will be buried generously. The courtiers will discuss that His Majesty is partial to Fu's family..."

"It doesn't matter." Emperor Mu Andi interrupted, "It's irrelevant. If there are any broken words, the Duke of Nanjun is still a Duke of the Duke after all. If someone is dead, even if he is partial, it's useless..."

Emperor Mu Andi stopped, his bloodshot eyes showed sorrow.

He rolled his Adam's apple and continued: "In King Duan's opinion, who should we send to investigate this matter?"

Chen Tian was stunned, for a moment he didn't know whether the sage was referring to Duke Nanjun or Fu Shangshu.

Emperor Mu Andi was not in a hurry, he sat quietly, his eyes fell on the servants with their backs full of rays of light, there was hatred and hatred in his brows.

After pondering for a long time, Chen Tian said, "I heard that during the Jujutsu competition on June [-]th, the horse that helped the girl went mad, and was rescued by Xie Shaoqing on Yuwei Mountain."

Emperor Mu Andi was startled, and turned his eyes back to Chen Tian from outside the hall, "Which group came from Bailan?"

Chen Tian nodded, "Exactly."

After a moment of contemplation, Emperor Mu Andi continued: "I remember, the Fu family still has a marriage contract with the Xie family. But I heard from the queen that there is a rumor in Jiankang City that Xie Liulang is going to retire."

Chen Tian thought about what Emperor Mu Andi said, and then thought about the current situation of the Fu family. Without the protection of the Xie family, the whole family would suffer.

For the rest, he could wait.

Out of selfishness, he replied: "I have never heard this from Fu Erlang."

The word "Fu Erlang" made Emperor Mu Andi's eyes move slightly.

He naturally knew the friendship between Fu Xiao and Chen Tian, ​​when he followed his father to inspect the Baiyue Army camp in Jingzhou, Fu Yiwen and Chen Ji were beside them.After getting along for a few days, I realized that one of the two is bold and the other is careful, and the sympathy between them is undisguised, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are brothers.

In this world, everyone has the desire to get what they want.

So is Emperor Mu Andi.

He had only two siblings since he was a child, and he had hoped many times that he would have such a "brother" who would trust him with his heart and sacrifice his life for each other.

At this point in the conversation, Emperor Mu Andi fully understood what King Duan meant.

King Duan believed in Fu Xiao, but what Fu Xiao didn't say, no matter how true the rumors were, King Duan would not believe it.

And what about Emperor Mu Andi?
Compared with the increasingly powerful queen and the Yu family behind her, at this moment, he would rather believe in this distant relative in front of him.

In other words, he was willing to believe in a person whose power would never surpass him.
