Rong Ming walked towards them, Jiang Lao saw him coming, and his toes subconsciously turned to his side, and took the cloak he put on his arms and held it by himself.

Rong Ming bends down slightly in accordance with her movement to take away his robes. After seeing Jiang Jinxing standing by and watching them, he straightened up slightly, and took Jiang Lao's shoulders. Pulling closer to his side, Jiang Jinxing asked, "When did my brother-in-law come?"

Time goes by, his habits are completely different from when he was a teenager. He used to smile when he saw people, but his smile was always exactly the same. His narrow eyes smiled like radiant crescents, and the shadows cast by thick eyelashes made the eyes slightly evil. The mole swallowed and disappeared.

Jiang Jinxing frowned.

After he was thrown into a college to study at the age of eight, he took care of Rong Ming a lot there. Rong Ming came to be his brother-in-law, and he was the most satisfied.

And when Jiang Lao got married, he tried to find Sister A in Ning'an Bo's mansion, but couldn't find anyone. His heart gradually got wrong, and he finally turned around.

Rong Chen, who is so skillful in calculation, can have a place in the court in a few years, how can he take care of him in every way just because of a little kindness at the beginning? Instead, he set out a lot of his sister's preferences and whereabouts.

It was clear that he had conspired against his sister early on.

As long as he had a plan, he had misunderstood him for a long time. He had no intention of his sister. He was thinking about how to help his sister get back the husband she wanted... For the truth... Jiang Jinxing thought about the detours inside. , I felt a little bit of dissatisfaction in my heart.

He only wanted to make Rong Ming be his brother-in-law. Firstly, his sister liked it. Seeing Rong Ming's eyes seemed to have little stars. Secondly, he also had face. Rong Ming was smart and had good skills, which just made up for his lack of older brothers. Regret.

But he is now a little disgusted with Rong's cleverness.

Such a clever person, when he likes his sister, change it. If he doesn't like it someday, he may not have the ability to help her sister be fair.

No matter how good Rong Ming’s skin is, in his heart, this man in this world is not as handsome as himself. Jiang Jinxing’s voice replied indifferently, “I came here a few hours ago. I’m free to see if I can help you. The place."

"Oh." Rong Zhen mentioned casually, "Knowing that your sister is cooking porridge, I came back a bit earlier today."

Jiang Lao just wanted to ask Rong Chen why he came back so early today. When he saw that he was talking to her brother, he didn't step up to disturb him. Hearing Rong Chen's words, his lips secretly smiled and touched him quietly. The hand suddenly left.

Jiang Jinxing had a subtle sense of being compared right now, but he had already said to Jiang Lao in a faceless manner that it was his parents who drove him, so he couldn't change his words any more, so he could only sulp himself.

...

Jiang Lao and Rong Zhao dine on weekdays. They only use a small round table. Although the table is small, the workmanship is exquisite. The materials are fine red sandalwood, Fuyun and Biandilian are carved with fine pens, and they are wrapped around the corner of the table. Although it was a small round table, the two of them were very warm when they were sitting around. There was one more person today, and it immediately became a bit cramped.

Jiang Jinxing looked at the two people on the opposite side, with the celadon bowl in his hands, and did not move his chopsticks for a long time.

A small bamboo basket was placed on the rice table. The boiled chestnuts were drained and rolled into the basket. Rong Zhao peeled one off his sleeve, and habitually handed it to Jiang Lao's mouth.

Jiang Lao remembered that Jiang Jinxing was changing, didn't dare to open his mouth to accept the feeding as usual, pushed the bowl, blinking his wet eyes silently as if there was a sound, and asked Rong Ming to put the chestnuts in her bowl.

Rong Chen obediently let go, just rubbing the toes of Jiang Lao's embroidered shoes with the toes of his boots, silently expressing his dissatisfaction.

Jiang Jinxing glanced at it and guessed how the two people get along in private.

He peeled the chestnuts by himself, feeling very lonely. He peeled the chestnuts and put them in a plate into a golden pile, but none of them moved.

After a long while, he pushed the bowl, said "full", and went to the yard first.

Jiang Laochang remembered what Jiang Jinxing wanted to say to her, but seeing that he hadn't mentioned it all the time, something strange appeared in his heart.

He seemed to want to avoid Rong Chen.

She was aware of this, and she was inexplicably puzzled.

Is there anything you can't let Rong Chen know?

Seeing Jiang Lao's gaze chasing Jiang Jinxing's back, Rong Lu slowly put down his chopsticks and said to her, "I'll take a look."

He walked out the door, Jiang Jinxing was standing on the porch, leaning against the wall not knowing what he was thinking about, Rong Ming's footsteps heard, and he quickly returned to his senses and shouted "Brother-in-law."

Rong Chen saw that his gaze was a little more profound, staring at Jiang Jinxing, he saw that his heart was hairy, and he wondered if the thing he had accidentally learned was known by Rong Chen. He said, "Have you learned all your homework?"

In front of Rong Chen, Jiang Jinxing didn't dare to lie, and answered honestly: "So-so, but recently Mr. Yan went back to visit relatives, and I was spared."

Rong Ming nodded, and said nothing.

Jiang Jinxing recalled Rong Ming's expression, and understood something.

he

In recent days, I have been running more frequently to the Palace of Qi, which is annoying.

"Just before the porridge stall, someone came."

Rong Ming turned his eyes slightly to Jiang Jinxing.

"Brother-in-law must not have thought of who it is." Jiang Jinxing made a mystery. "Sister A wanted to tell you at the beginning. I stopped him. If I told you directly, I'm afraid that you don't have the mind to eat and want to go to Dali Temple. "

"Second girl Shen, Shen Yanying."

There were no surprises in Rong's eyes.

He knew it a long time ago.

He knew everything in the house.

In the deep sea-like eyes, there was a little anger hidden.

Although he can't be converted, he can't hold the power, but the things he wants to control, only when he is in his hands, can he live in peace.

The Shen family caught fire and burned Madam Shen and Shen Que’s second daughter. He found that one of the Shen’s servants had no news. The maid was about the same age and body shape as Chen Que’s second daughter...

At that time, he guessed that Shen Xianying was alive, and sent people to look around. He also arranged eyeliner on the city gate.

But Shen Yanying was finally brought back by Jiang Jinxing.

He thought he had laid a net, but only fish slipped through the net. This was something he couldn't bear.

Rong Chen's voice became gloomy following his mood, "Second girl Shen, I will interrogate myself."

Unlike Jiang Lao, Jiang Jinxing was far away from the court and didn't care about the affairs of the court. When he was a little older, he became interested in this kind of power struggle. Although he changed all day to tease cats and dogs, he didn't seem to be in good shape, but the actual intrigue in the hall had already surpassed those who wrote heroes. The story book has become his favorite thing to listen to in his pastime.

He knew what Rong Chen's reputation was in the court.

And when Rong Ming left the house, Jiang Jinxing found Jiang Lao, "A sister is just in front, hasn't she always wanted to get close to Princess Xiang and her daughter, Xie Xi?"

When Jiang Lao did this, she didn’t deliberately hide from the people around her. She was not surprised that Jiang Jinxing knew about it. On the contrary, she was a little surprised that he was also caring about her affairs. He nodded and corrected: “I didn’t want to get close. , I just want to figure out why Princess Xiang is obviously the daughter of the country's head-in-law, so why does she always hide from the country's head-in-law?"

Jiang Lao had already guessed in his own heart that the most reliable one was that Princess Xiang resented his father for preferring his sister Xu Lanruo.

She found out that the relationship between Princess Xiang and Queen Jiahe was not good when they were in the boudoir.

When a sister enters the palace and becomes a queen all the way, Princess Xiang will be jealous, of course.

She guessed the princess

Driven by this kind of jealousy, he gradually broke off contact with the Xu family.

Jiang Lao told Jiang Jinxing about what he was thinking, and said, "I just want to find out, I want to know if I can find the head of the country from Princess Xiang. Now the Xu family is losing power, I There is no need to stare at the mother and daughter anymore."

After listening to her patiently, Jiang Jinxing finally couldn't help laughing.

His tone was still sarcasm, "The daughters of the country's father-in-law, but they are famous filial daughters."

"What do you mean..." Jiang Lao frowned.

"Princess Xiang did not resent Guo Zhang Xu." Jiang Jinxing said with certainty: "Guo Zhang Xu married her to King Xiang in order to let her keep a close eye on King Xiang, so as to suppress King Xiang's power secretly so as not to have a close relationship with King Xiang. The three princes seized the seat of prince. But the king's father arranged for her to monitor King Xiang and was stabbed in front of King Xiang a few years ago. King Xiang was furious, and Princess Xiang’s chess piece was useless, and King Xiang was jealous of the country. The father-in-law’s forces did not dare to send her down. Now that Princess Xiang is disgusted by her husband and rejected by Xu Guozhang, she is now depressed."

Jiang Lao was stunned. After a while, he found his own voice, "What if she is deceiving you?"

Jiang Jinxing twisted his eyebrows and was very dissatisfied with her distrust, "You only know that you start with Princess Xiang and Xie Xi, but you don't know that a woman's mind is sometimes harder to guess. What you think in your heart, you have to say it the other way around. , It’s very troublesome. These things were confided by King Xiang after being drunk, and every word is true."

Jiang Lao was silent for a while, digested the causes and consequences that Jiang Jinxing said, and suddenly became cold, "King Xiang is drunk, why are you by his side? Didn't you drink too?"

Jiang Jinxing's whole body exploded, and said angrily: "It's not that you are always investigating Princess Xiang, but you are clumsy and can't find out anything, so I figured out a way to get a good relationship with King Xiang. , What's the wine, I lost my small six."

"little six?"

"My cricket."

"The King Xiang loves fighting crickets. The Xiaoliu I trained is the first in Jinling. I deliberately lost to him and gave the crickets to him. He took the crickets I gave to him. There is no disadvantage. Others praised him for training crickets. The easy-to-train cricket has given him a reputation, and he is naturally grateful to me in every possible way."

"But I was really wronged. Silver, I want silver." Jiang Jinxing stretched out his hand towards Jiang Lao, and begged with confidence.

Jiang Lao wanted to remind him that the plaything was mourning Yizhi, but at this time she ignored it. She knew when she heard that her brother had helped her find King Xiang a few months ago.

Regardless of how easy he said, the young boy is just the age to save face, and he will not mention the hardships, so he wants people to praise him for being smart.

She didn't say much, she gave the money quickly enough, took the cash box, and found a silver note worth 100 taels for him.

Jiang Jinxing held the banknote, patted it twice in the palm of his hand, smiled, but reached out and handed the banknote back to Jiang Lao.

Jiang Lao was surprised at his rare generosity, and he heard Jiang Jinxing’s voice faintly sounded, “This thousand taels is my cricket’s account, in exchange for the hard cost of asking for news from King Xiang, in exchange for the calculation. ."

He talked about money with open eyes and a full smile, as if he could push the peach bones in February, and knocked on the table with his fingers. Ten dans of rice will be put in the grain shop to help me manage it. If it can be sold, then the capital and profit will be exchanged for me. If I can’t sell it, I won’t be too late to give me a thousand taels. Will it be successful?”

Jiang Lao took back the silver ticket, "Oh", and said with a little angrily and a little helplessly: "Sure."

This will be calculated, she doesn't have to worry that he will squander Ning'an Bo's treasury in the future.

Jiang Jinxing touched his throat, "I'm tired of talking, tea."

Jiang Lao assigned Ming Shao to make tea and put the banknotes in the drawer.

When Ming Shao came back with a pot of tea and poured tea for the two masters, Jiang Lao remembered something and asked Jiang Jinxing, "The matter about Prince Xiang...Why did you wait until your brother-in-law has left before telling me?"

How can this matter be kept secret?

Jiang Jinxing drank half a cup of tea, and looked at Jiang Lao very intriguingly, "You have been by his side for so long, you have never noticed anything?"

Jiang Lao frowned and asked, "What do you want me to notice?"

"Don't you think that piercing the matter of Princess Xiang in front of King Xiang is like a brother-in-law acting style?"
