Misfortune and blessing

Chapter 5 Floating Life in Troubled Times

Chen Shaofu is a pure-hearted person and has no relationship with Wade, but he naturally appreciates this neither arrogant nor humble child.He knew that this child was different from the sons of other princes, he did not come to make friends with royal relatives, he came to study.It was rare to see what he said and did with the princes. In class, right was right and wrong was wrong, without the arrogance and extravagance of a son of a powerful man.

Someone is willing to learn, and of course he will teach diligently.Even if the First Prince and the Fifth Prince went on tour with Empress Fang and were often not in the palace, he still went to class every day on the grounds that the Seventh Prince was still in the palace and could not waste his studies.

Xiao Yulin is a generalist, smart since childhood, and has a strong nature. Although he is young and expensive as a prince, Wei Xi never let him in the slightest. With him and Wei Xi studying together, they naturally complement each other.

In the spring of the 19th year of Shengyuan, Xiao Boyuan announced at the court that Xiao Yujin would be crowned prince at the end of autumn.

Although they have never bullied others with the power of a prince, the friendship between Xiao Yujin and others and Wei Xi is still neither cold nor cold.

One day at the end of spring, Yuehe fell ill, and Wei Xi had to ask for leave for this reason.

This request lasted for five days, Chen Shaofu was anxious, but Wei Xi was accompanying him as a student after all, so he couldn't drop the class because of this.

Xiao Yujin and her brothers glanced at each other, and left the palace for the Prime Minister's residence that afternoon.

Although Wei Xiang's mansion has always been crowded with high-ranking officials and dignitaries, when Xiao Yujin is the future prince, the future new king, when such a noble person comes to the door, everyone looks at him with a long face, even Wade Everyone has to go out to greet them.

The 15-year-old Xiao Yujin has always been good at dancing, even if it is not difficult for him to gossip with Hades, let alone a mere Wade?Not only did he talk for half an hour, but he also drank three pots of good tea and ate two plates of snacks before mentioning Wei Xi's matter.

One is the king of tomorrow, and the other is the minister of the future. If he didn't see him as the prime minister, how could he come to the door for such a trivial matter?Wade's vanity was satisfied and he was happy, so of course he sent someone to call his eldest son.

Wei Xi was originally a dull person, but after staying at home for five days, he seemed even more lifeless. When he walked, his whole body was empty and he had no vitality at all.When he saw Xiao Yujin, he just bowed and stood beside his father.

Seeing his son's indifference, it was rare for Wade not to be angry. Instead, he thought that maybe it was because of his presence, so he withdrew after a while, leaving Xiao Yujin and Wei Xi alone.

Xiao Yujin saw him standing aside as if he had no owner, and didn't ask anyone to sit down, just said. "I heard that Aunt He was not feeling well, so I brought some medicine." After speaking, he pointed to the box on the table.

Hearing this, Wei Xi raised his head and opened his long and narrow eyes. "The family is strict and ambitious, the whole world knows, why is the eldest prince so?" He could not remember when there was such a friendship between them.

Being able to say such a thing meant that he was right to come today. "It has nothing to do with Master Xiang." Xiao Yujin replied. "Friendship between classmates, as it should be." Thinking that the Wei Xiang's mansion is so powerful, how could it make the aunt in the mansion suffer so much?The reasons for this are worth investigating.

Wei Xi lowered his eyes, knowing that the Eldest Prince must have seen his situation in the Wei Mansion, so he specially delivered the medicine, and said after a while. "Elder Prince──Do you want to make friends with Wei Xi?" He didn't believe that Xiao Yujin's cleverness would fail to realize that he was worthless at all.

"If you have no power and power today, will you have no power and power in the future?" Xiao Yujin disagreed, and said more bluntly. "My prince is not such a superficial person."

"Wei Xi doesn't understand."

"It's best if you're willing to stand on my prince's side. If you don't, you may be a respectable opponent in the future." Xiao Yujin chuckled. "Before then, my prince hopes that you can live well." Wouldn't it be a pity if his future was ruined because of Aunt He?

He's just a classmate, and he's still an incompetent child, so he didn't expect him to take such good care of himself.Wei Xi confessed. "The eldest prince should know that changing to Jia Yan will definitely get rid of him before he can become famous."

"But it's my prince and you at this moment." Xiao Yujin's face was still relaxed, as if she was talking about ordinary things. "The road in front of you is the same as this prince, and there are not many choices."

Wei Xi was startled. "Indeed." No matter whether he followed his father or betrayed his father, he had almost no way out.

"Before then, you have to make yourself stronger." Xiao Yujin continued. "These are the books I've used for the past few days and the content of Chen Shaofu's lectures. They are all recorded by Xiaoqi. Maybe you will use them."

After taking the book handed over by Xiao Yujin and looking at the detailed annotations on the pages, Wei Xi couldn't say a word.

"Lonely officials and evil sons must work extremely hard to survive death." Xiao Yujin put the teacup aside. "It's getting late, and it's time for the prince to return to the palace."

Holding the book in hand, Wei Xi spoke for a moment. "Thank you, First Prince."

Xiao Yujin shook her head. "People must respect themselves and future generations will respect them. You have to thank yourself, not this prince."

Xiao Yujin has been with her mother all over the world since she was a child, and she is no longer comparable to the noble sons of the royal family. In addition to being more delicate than others, she is also quite knowledgeable. Naturally, she knows that the children of concubines who are not valued by wealthy families are more humble than the children of ordinary people.What's more, during the year of studying together with Wei Xi, although he wasn't there every day, he could see every detail more clearly than Chen Shaofu. The 11-year-old Wei Xi has the maturity and wisdom beyond his age. In time, he will become an important minister of Daliang. This is Daliang's blessing.So what if he doesn't use it?

Sending Xiao Yujin away with her father, Wei Xi lowered her eyes and walked into the inner room, only to find that there were several packs of medicine in the box, which contained the name of the disease, the prescription and the method of preparing the medicine in detail. It is the handwriting of the Seventh Prince.And the name of the disease is exactly the same as the doctor who came to help my mother to see a doctor.

Wei Xi hurriedly raised the heat to decoct the medicine, Aunt He drank three doses and she was fine, her spirit was better than before, as if she was a few years younger than yesterday, but Wei Xi still begged her mother to drink all the medicine according to the doctor's advice.

It has been several years for Yue He not to be so relaxed and happy, and she has followed up on the current situation of caring about her son. Although Wei Xi doesn't like to listen to her mother's nagging, she still feels fortunate that she is fine.

In those few nights, he was always thinking about Xiao Yujin's words while decocting the medicine.

Lonely ministers and evil sons must work extremely hard to survive death.

Looking at the small bridge and flowing water in front of him, the entangled and winding road, and the seemingly gorgeous red-tiled houses, with a considerable number of maids and servants, it is clearly one of the best families in Daliang. How dangerous is the foundation on which to build?This room is full of people cheating each other, defrauding the emperor and treason, being unfaithful, unkind, unfilial, how long can this kind of wealth last?

Wei Xi deeply understands that the future that he thought he would never have in the past must be dug out bit by bit by himself.And all of this is definitely not something that can be solved just by studying hard.

Jiangzhou, Xuanwu Mountain.

The sky is blue and white, and the sun is shining brightly.

A black shadow quickly shuttled through the forest, and as he lightly tapped on the branches, the leaves made a crackling sound.

"Xiaotian, it's not enough, you have to be lighter."

Following the sound came a faster black shadow, repeating the movement just now like flowing clouds and flowing water, and there was little movement in the forest.

The two black shadows continued to shuttle through the forest until they reached the top of the mountain.

Luo Tianxing stood with his father on the largest and tallest tree in Xuanwu Mountain. The bamboo baskets behind them were filled with various food ingredients. His clear round eyes looked beyond the end of the green forest in front of him, across the stream, as far away as possible. , up to the side that cannot be seen at all.

Luo Zhenyu, who is tall and muscular, patted his son on the shoulder. The 11-year-old Luo Tianxing is tall and thin, and will soon grow to his shoulders.Although he has a handsome face, he is very skilled in martial arts and talents.A combination of pride and sentimentality suddenly emerged in Luo Zhenyu's heart.Hey, luckily the kid only has his precious wife who looks like him.

"Father will leave Xuanwu Mountain again tomorrow, and I will leave everything in the church to you." After speaking, he rubbed Luo Tianxing's hair.

"Father..." Luo Tianxing glared at his father, tried his best to push his father's hand away, and said sullenly when he finished tidying his hair. "Does Dad really think those people are trustworthy?"

Luo Zhenyu lowered his eyes. "Xiao Tian, ​​are you worried?"

Luo Tianxing nodded. "Yes." Although he is still underage, his father never hides anything from him.

Luo Zhenyu half-focused. "Although there are thousands of people, I will go."

Luo Tianxing didn't know if he would have such thoughts in his life, but as a son, his father's behavior made him have to worry.In such a troubled world, he knew very well that what his father did was for the righteousness of the world, but what his mother said was also reasonable-why did he care about the world?As long as the Sacred Fire Sect manages the property in the sect and lives in Jiangzhou well, they can also become rich, so why do they need to fight with swords and go with fire?If there is a chance, this is a matter of ransacking the family and destroying the family, and even paying the entire Holy Fire Cult.

"Don't worry, dad will be fine." Luo Zhenyu smiled at his son.This ferocious face only showed tenderness when facing his wife and son, but even so, it still looked fierce. "When father is away, remember to study and practice. Also, your mother can eat and use whatever she wants. If she is unhappy or angry, you must make a good apology to her..."

Listening to his father's lengthy request, which was full of doting on his mother, Luo Tianxing had no choice but to interrupt him. "Father, mother wants to eat boar pork tonight."

Luo Zhenyu frowned, for a moment he didn't know where he was going, he only spoke for a while. "Boar pork?" His precious wife has had the same temper for more than ten years. It is obviously for her own good not to let her travel, but the price is often too high. "Looks like we have to work harder."

Luo Tianxing hummed, and leaped quickly on the branches with his father, his beautiful round eyes were exposed after seeing the dark shadow in the forest.

Without even thinking about it, Luo Tianxing turned the longbow on his shoulder upside down and held it in his hand, holding a white-feathered arrow in his right hand.
