Splendid Pastoral

Chapter 552 Choice
After hearing Xiao Yanfeng's words, Xiao Yichen fell into a long silence.

That's right, now that I'm dragging my family along, everything I do and every word I say in the courtroom not only represent myself, if I make a wrong step, I'm not the only one who will fall into the abyss of eternal doom one person.

Thinking of Wang Zimo's smiling face, Xiao Yichen felt that the softness in his heart had been touched, and his mind was not as firm as before.

Seeing the serious expression on Xiao Yichen's face, Xiao Yanfeng narrowed his eyes: "Chen'er, all we have to do now is wait."

"Wait?" Xiao Yichen didn't quite understand the meaning of his father's words, and there was great doubt in his eyes.

"Yes." Xiao Yanfeng nodded lightly, "Wait for King Ling to come back."

When he heard the word Ling Wang from his father, Xiao Yichen suddenly realized, and nodded in agreement: "That's right, when King Ling comes back, our power in the court will be enough to compete with the crown prince. You don’t have to hide it like this.”

"No!" Listening to his son's statement, Xiao Yanfeng's eyes did not show approval, but he completely rejected his statement.

"What does father mean?" Xiao Yichen's eyes showed some confusion, he always felt that he got too much information from his father tonight, which he had never noticed before.

Now that the situation has reached this point, Xiao Yanfeng does not intend to keep some things from Xiao Yichen anymore.

"If King Ling comes back and wants to overthrow the current emperor, Weifu will help him."

"What?" Xiao Yichen subconsciously looked around when he heard what Xiao Yanfeng said, and after realizing that there was no one there, he breathed a sigh of relief, and unconsciously took a step forward, getting closer to him , and lowered his voice a little, "Father, you can't talk nonsense."

Xiao Yanfeng didn't answer Xiao Yichen's words immediately, but just looked at him fixedly, his eyes were very firm.

When he noticed his father's firm eyes, Xiao Yichen knew that his father was not joking with him.

In the final analysis, Xiao Yanfeng was not that loyal to the emperor of this dynasty, after all, he was not supporting the current emperor during the incident of seizing the throne.

"Chen'er, daddy will never force you to choose with daddy, force you to make the same choice as daddy." Xiao Yanfeng's tone was very solemn, after all, this is a matter of great importance in the lives of both father and son.

"Father said thank you to you today. It's nothing more than letting you think about it in your heart. You are too old. The emperor only cares about tricks. If someone like the crown prince is allowed to ascend to the throne, if this continues, you will not be able to come out." In a hundred years, I am afraid that Yuan Country will eventually become history."

Speaking of this, Xiao Yanfeng slowly closed his eyes, and a face appeared in his mind, over there was Gu Lingqing's father, Lord Xian.

So far, Xiao Yanfeng still remembers that he had a very happy chat with Lord Xian, and he remembered that he described to himself the beautiful imagination of the future of this Yuan country.

"Okay, it's getting late." Xiao Yanfeng was immersed in his own memories, closed his eyes, and waved at Xiao Yichen, "You should also go down to rest earlier, you should have your own judgment and judgment on today's matter Consider."

Afterwards, Xiao Yanfeng stopped talking.

Watching Xiao Yanfeng close his eyes, Xiao Yichen bowed slightly towards him with his hands in his hands, and turned to leave the study.

When Xiao Yichen returned to his yard, Wang Zimo was just having lunch, and when he saw him coming in, his expression was also taken aback.

Although Wang Zimo didn't know what happened in the court hall recently, but in the past few days, Xiao Yichen almost went out early in the morning and came back when it was almost dark at night, with a hasty look on his face.

Sometimes, Wang Zimo woke up in the middle of the night and saw him sitting alone on a chair outside, thinking about something.

Wang Zimo knew that he must have encountered something unsatisfactory or difficult in the court recently, so he was a little surprised that he came back at noon today.

After seeing Xiao Yichen coming from the outside, Wang Zimo ordered to the servant behind him: "Add another pair of bowls and chopsticks."

"Have you had lunch yet?" Looking at the tenderness in Wang Zimo's eyes, he shook his head and went to sit next to her, and immediately touched her stomach.

Although Wang Zimo's stomach is not showing yet, Xiao Yichen's favorite thing to do on weekdays is to touch her stomach or lie on his lap, listening to her stomach's "fetal movement" without any sound.

"Not yet." Xiao Yichen chuckled lightly, "Just now we talked about something in Dad's study."

Hearing Xiao Yichen say that they were in Xiao Yanfeng's study just now, he knew that the two must be talking about something in the court.

Naturally, Wang Zimo would not ask about these matters in the court.

Because Wang Zimo trusted Xiao Yichen enough, and believed that he could handle the court affairs well.

Wang Zimo really didn't understand the matters in the court, if Xiao Yichen even found the problem difficult, how could he possibly give him good advice?

Wang Zimo knew that what Xiao Yichen needed at this time was just a hot meal and a word of care, Wang Zimo would not do any of the other superfluous things that bothered him.

After having a peaceful lunch with Wang Zimo, Xiao Yichen watched her fall asleep on the bed, then hurriedly got up and went to the study, where he stayed until night.

After Xiao Yichen left, Xiao Yanfeng sat on the chair for a long time before recovering from the memories.

When he slowly opened his eyes, his eye sockets were a little red, he sighed deeply and stood up from the chair, relaxed his muscles and bones, and went to find Jiang Yanran for dinner.

After eating, originally Xiao Yanfeng wanted to go back to the study, but by a strange coincidence, he came outside Zhao Min's courtyard.

Due to the incidents in the court these few days, Xiao Yanfeng didn't often stay at the mansion, so since he gave Zhao Min the dagger last time, he never came to see her again.

At this time, Zhao Min just had lunch and felt a little sleepy, so he planned to take a nap.

I don't know if it's because the days of the fetus in the womb are getting longer and longer, Zhao Min now feels more and more sleepy, it's like not getting enough sleep every day, and the body also feels lazy, unwilling to move more.

Zhao Min was about to go to the couch in the inner room, when she heard Madam Gu come in to announce that it was Xiao Yanfeng who came.

Hearing Xiao Yanfeng's arrival, Zhao Minqiang braced himself up and got up to greet him. Sure enough, just as Zhao Min got up, he saw Xiao Yanfeng walking in with his unique vigor and resoluteness.
