Don't be clouded

Ji Bieyun immediately became vigilant, his whole body tensed up, if it wasn't for the fact that the knife was not by his side, his hand should already be holding the handle of the knife at this moment.

For a while, many guesses flashed through his mind.

Prince Xian is actually with his brother?Or with the prime minister?And Duan Wenfu?Or that Prince Xian already knew his identity and was about to expose him?Then this person also knows Guan Chen's original identity?

... No matter how bad it is, don't really plan to be a matchmaker, bring everyone to him, right?

However, after Prince Xian appreciated his uneasiness enough, he smiled happily, "It seems that you really have hidden a lot of secrets, Ji Yao?"

After Ji Bieyun was exposed, he was a little embarrassed, but he still said cheekily: "Will you be happy, my lord?"

"Okay, I'll give you a treat." Mingwang said, "I went to Xuanqing Temple to express my condolences the night before, and the emperor called me to talk for a while, and he said..."

In the middle of the speech, Prince Xian resigned. He raised his wine glass to drink but was stopped by Ji Bieyun.The boy didn't care about breaking the rules, and said impatiently: "What did you say?"

Mingwang didn't care about it, and continued: "The emperor said, he saw that you have reached your age, but the house is empty, and intends to give you a marriage."

Ji Bieyun was in a daze.

"Your Majesty has asked someone to pick out a girl from the Ming family, who belongs to Pangzhide Jinghou's family." Prince Xian said, "But I told Your Majesty on the spot that you have never been close to women, and you are surrounded by almost all big girls." Man. Your Majesty is also enlightened, saying that there is a son in Dejinghou's family, and he can be sent to Ji's residence, so it will be regarded as foster care."

"No... this..." He seldom spoke stuttering, frowning, "I don't like anyone, why should I push it to me? That's not how you win people, right? , What's the use of me being unhappy? Are you expecting me to work for the Ming family instead of someone I don't like at all?"

Ji Bieyun was a little angry, for a moment he forgot that the people sitting across from him were also from the Ming family.

Mingwang looked like he was watching the excitement, as if he had expected his reaction, and said leisurely: "That's what I said last night. If you did such a sensational thing today, would His Majesty still want to give you a marriage? He should be eager You get out of Chenjing."

Hearing this, he suddenly realized that he was too excited just now.

Indeed, he drove Emperor Yuanhui to the shelf, forcing the other party to thoroughly investigate Yushitai. Emperor Yuanhui might be so angry that he smashed all the things in Wenying Hall again. How could he still want the Ming family to marry him?

Ji Bieyun's ears were a little hot, and he sat back honestly, "It's because I didn't think about it."

In fact, before he fell in love with Guanchen, he hadn't thought about starting a family at all. It would be nice if he could break into Chenjing and achieve his goal alive.But ever since he became selfish, he deliberately avoided this aspect of things, and now he suddenly heard that the emperor wanted to give him a marriage, and he felt even more upset.

"However," Prince Xian said again, "Maybe His Majesty wants to disgust you? Anyway, it is a side branch, which can represent the Ming family when it is useful, and can be discarded at will when it is useless. I know my brother, he doesn't want to be bored, Even if there is no way to punish you openly, it will make you unhappy secretly. What's more, you are a minister and he is a monarch, so how can a monarch be angry with his ministers for nothing?"

Ji Bieyun's heart fluctuated greatly, and he raised it again.

Prince Xian is right. According to Emperor Yuan Hui's seemingly gentle but violent personality, even if he is blocked by the eyes of the whole world, he dare not make things difficult for him, the hero who discovered the Chongzhou scandal, and he will try to disgust him from other places. of.

However, the imperial decree for bestowing marriage has not yet come down. Even if he knew that Emperor Yuan Hui had this intention, he would not be able to refuse it first.

What is this?Even if the court is fighting to the death, you shouldn't use this kind of private matter as a bargaining chip. It's really annoying to win over this and disgusting that.

Whether it's a man or a woman, Ji Bieyun feels uncomfortable when he thinks of a stranger living in Ji's house and having that kind of relationship with him.He suddenly couldn't help the urge to run to Xuanqing Mountain, so that he could hide in the quiet and guard the monk Guanchen.

Ji Bieyun felt more and more bad, he hadn't even touched Guanchen's hand seriously, talking about getting married or not.

However, when he thought that he had not touched the monk's hand, he felt even more hopeless.I'm afraid that in this life, he can only hide his thoughts and be a seasoned benefactor who can advance and retreat well, or an old friend he met when he was young.

Ji Bieyun was a little depressed, and said: "My lord, you don't need to tell me, otherwise I wouldn't be so disgusted now."

I only heard Prince Xian chuckled, "I came to sell favors, but you are blaming me. It seems that this person who spreads the word is not easy to be, that's all, Ji Zhai doesn't want to see me, so I will go back to the palace. "

Although he knew that Prince Xian was putting on airs like a joke, he stretched out his hand to stop him.

"I haven't eaten the meal yet, what is the prince going back to do?"

Mingwang took advantage of the situation and sat back, and said again: "Okay, if I eat a bite of your Ji's family's food, I will sell you another favor."

Ji Bieyun was not very happy when he heard this, and said suspiciously, "Don't tell me it's some bad news."

Prince Xian didn't answer, just looked sideways: "Why is Uncle Hao's hands and feet so inflexible after he came to Ji's residence, is it so difficult to eat his dishes once?"

Seeing that the prince was pretending to be stupid, he had no choice but to get up and go to the kitchen to remind Prince Xian.When it was done, he took a food box and went back to the Huxin Pavilion.

The sky has become very dark, and lamps have been lit everywhere.After serving the dishes, the servants were all dismissed by Prince Xian.

Ji Bieyun chatted with this person for a long time on an empty stomach, but he was already so hungry that his chest was stuck to his back, and he couldn't wait to pick up his chopsticks.

However, after taking two mouthfuls, he found that the person on the opposite side didn't move, and he didn't seem to want to eat, so he had to put down his chopsticks again, "I just realized that Xu Yang is really not easy, and it is too difficult to serve you satisfactorily. My lord, what are you doing?" Do you want to eat or enjoy the scenery? Do you need me to invite the music team for the prince?"

Prince Xian, who was offended by the yin and yang, was not angry, and still smiled like a spring breeze, "You eat first, I'm afraid you will lose your appetite after talking about it."

As soon as these words came out, Ji Bieyun immediately lost his appetite.

He took a deep breath, looked at death as home and said, "Give me a better time."

"I'm in a good mood today, so I promise you." Prince Xian paused for a while, and then said in a leisurely tone, "Actually, I suspect that you are not Ji Yao."

...It really is not a good thing.

Ji Bieyun subconsciously tightened his body again, and then remembered that this person was Prince Xian, and he couldn't just silence him, so he had to force himself to relax as much as possible.

However, Prince Xian added: "But I also guessed wildly, and I haven't verified it."

This big gasp.

Ji Bieyun suspected that Prince Xian did it on purpose, just to see him flustered.

After meeting the prince tonight, his heartbeat has never slowed down, he had ups and downs several times, and he is already a little tired from being teased.

Fortunately, Guanchen and Prince Xian are still good friends, so how did the monk cope with it all these years?

He was a little helpless and said: "Since the lord doubts my identity, why don't you go to investigate? It's just a showdown here. Forgive me for not being able to guess what the lord wants to do."

Ji Yao's identity was almost flawless, and the prime minister was able to find out because the real Ji Yao had a relationship with Fang Muzhi, and the prime minister happened to know Liu Yunjing.If Prince Xian sent someone to investigate, there should be no results, and if the doubts were dispelled, naturally he would not express his doubts here.

So Prince Xian did it on purpose.

If you doubt it but don't investigate it, it seems that you don't care about the truth.

"It's a good thing you didn't deny it immediately, otherwise you would be meaningless." Prince Xian said, "I don't have any purpose, I just want to be honest with you."

Open and honest?

Generally, when these four words are mentioned, what follows is not a good thing. If there is no need to discuss something, why bother to be open and honest?

He hurriedly said, "What exactly does the lord want to say?"

Mingwang thought he interrupted his words, frowned slightly and said: "Even if I have doubts about you, it will not prevent me from meeting you later. Think about it, when you first entered Chenjing, you were my bodyguard. I was also the one who sent you there during the quiet time in Xuanqing Mountain, otherwise how would you have had the opportunity to stay with Guanchen for so long? You fainted at the Dengque meeting and I sent someone to rescue you and bring you back to Bieyuan for you Healing, even the current butler and servants of Ji Zhai are from the palace."

"and many more……"

This huge pile made Ji Bieyun dizzy, and faintly felt that there was something wrong mixed in.He managed to keep up with his train of thought, and replied: "That's true, the prince is indeed kind to me, and I have never denied this."

"Isn't that enough?" Prince Xian said, "It doesn't matter to me what your status is. When I make friends, I only see whether the person's brain is smart or not. So if you are as smart as you, you must know what I want to ask now." .”

Is this a compliment to him?

But Ji Bieyun felt that he was really not smart at the moment, Prince Xian's words made him so confused that it was difficult to guess the other party's purpose.

"...I'm actually quite stupid, unlike Master Guanchen, who understands as soon as you say it." Ji Bieyun said, "Let me make a bold guess, do you want to ask me what I came to the capital for? "

Prince Xian did not speak.

It seems that I guessed wrong.

Don't you even care about his real purpose of coming to Chenjing?Ji Bieyun felt strange, and at the same time thought of an answer in random, "Could it be that the prince wants to know how much trouble I can make? Will it implicate you?"

Prince Xian tapped the table with his knuckles, and said decisively: "Speak."

He really got it right.

Prince Xian behaved like a wild crane, and never participated in court disputes when he was the prince.Now that he is afraid that he will cause trouble and implicate himself, it makes sense.

Ji Bieyun thought about it and said: "I don't have too many goals and abilities, at most I will let the current Yushitai collapse...you can rest assured, I won't cause any trouble."

"Most?" Mingwang thought it was funny, "Yushitai is not some ruined temple on the side of the road, it can fall down with a light push, it is such a huge tall building, but now it is in danger and crumbling. You have only been in Beijing for less than half a year. You have set off such a turbulent wave, and you still say that nothing will happen?"

In this way, he really made a huge mess.

Ji Bieyun was a little guilty, "At most, I went to Yushitai. I didn't come to Beijing to fight for power, but Yushitai just happened to provoke me. Really."

The murderer who framed the Liu family has been found out, and no higher-ranking people should be involved in the future.What's more, there are only a few people on Yushitai, one is the general of Zhenguo, one is the prime minister, and after that, there will be only Emperor Yuanhui, right?

Prince Xian stared at him for a long time with that deep gaze, as if he was evaluating how true his words were.After a while, he raised the wine glass, stretched it out, and touched the glass he put on the table.

"I believe it. This matter will stop here, and I will not mention it again."

Although Ji Bieyun felt uneasy because his identity was suspected, but when he thought of the prime minister who also doubted his identity, he felt more at ease with Prince Xian.

After all, he hadn't had much contact with Fang Sui before, so he inevitably suspected that the other party was blackmailing him with secrets.But Prince Xian is different, he has been helped by the other party since he entered Chenjing.If you don't care about deeds, the prince doesn't have any malice towards him. If you really want to talk about your thoughts, after today's conversation, the two of them can be regarded as heart-to-hearts.

He lowered his eyes and raised the wine cup, and drank it down in a very face-saving gulp.

However, after drinking, he still couldn't help but complain: "You say it's a favor, but you come to expose my old background, the prince is too dishonest."

"If I don't suspect you behind your back, if I investigate you, I'm already betraying you." Prince Xian said quietly, "Instead of complaining about me, you should think more about the Yushitai case. If you put in so much effort, if you still fail , you don’t have to cry and go to Xuanqing Temple to seek comfort?”

Ji Bieyun, who really cried and went to Guan Chen for comfort, felt a little stiff for a moment.He hurriedly hid his guilty conscience for a moment, and said sullenly: "Don't worry about it, the prince, just do your best to obey the destiny."

As soon as he put down his glass, he heard the other person say: "It makes sense, then you should worry about the marriage."

Ji Bieyun paused and looked up.Prince Xian gloated a little, and added: "It's not easy for you to go to Xuanqing Mountain because of this matter, right?"

The author says:

Don't worry, it's an assist.
