Among Yan Xuanche's advisers, the one he summoned most often was Wen Jianci.

Although Wen Jianci sometimes speaks too straightforwardly and does not care about each other's identities at all, Yan Xuanche can often get what he wants from his somewhat stinging words, so he doesn't care so much. .

But what Wen Jianci just said made Yan Xuanche ponder for a while, and then he did not answer him directly, but instead said: "I asked Jian Ming to test the Crown Prince Rongan."

Yan Xuanche made it clear. His famous name was Cen Zhiyu, who was also a former student of Master Yu. He was a classmate of Yuan Lingheng, but he entered the official position two years earlier than Yuan Lingheng.

However, although he entered the official career earlier than Yuan Lingheng, Cen Zhiyu's official career was far less smooth than Yuan Lingheng. He had been serving as a small county magistrate in Qi County under Qinzhou.

When Cen Zhiyu was depressed and frustrated, he was discovered by Yan Xuanche, who was still a prince at the time, and he found a way to transfer him back to Shengjing. It is not an exaggeration to say that Yan Xuanche was his boss.

So after receiving Yan Xuanche's instructions, Cen Zhiyu quickly wrote to Yuan Lingheng, who was still in Jizhou at that time.

In addition to testing Yuan Lingheng's thoughts on this matter, Cen Zhiyu also said a lot of good things to His Royal Highness the King of Chu in the letter, and analyzed the pros and cons of this matter in his mind.

Wen Jianci looked at Yan Xuanche's face, then put down the chess piece in his hand with a smile and said: "From the look on His Highness's face, I guess he still failed to get what he wanted."

Not only did he not get what he wanted, Yan Xuanche shook his head.

Yuan Lingheng did reply to Cen Zhiyu, but although the tone of the letter was not harsh, the meaning of rejection could not be clearer.

In the letter, Yuan Lingheng said that even if he had no hope of an official career in his life, or if he was asked to resign and go home now, he would never send his sister to be a concubine for his own future. mentioned.

Wen Jianci burst out laughing after hearing this and said: "Your Highness, I have told you that the relationship between the two brothers and sisters of the Yuan family is extraordinary. One day, even if he threatens his official career, Crown Prince Rong'an will never do it. A compromise. Now is His Highness trustworthy?"

Yan Xuanche nodded. He had never thought of threatening Yuan Lingheng's career, and since he was in the emperor's heart now, offending him would do him some good.

Just thinking of Yuan Miaoyi, whom he had met several times, Yan Xuanche still couldn't let go easily. Seeing that there was no way to change the matter, he simply asked his mother and concubine to put aside the matter of choosing his concubine for him.

Yan Xuanche didn't like having too many people in the backyard, and even the maids in the mansion rarely came to the front yard to serve him.

It's just that Yan Xuanche couldn't tell at this time whether he was interested in the Rong'an Hou Mansion and the Pei family behind Yuan Miaoyi, or whether he was interested in Yuan Miaoyi.

A big reason why Wen Jianci was able to be trusted by Yan Xuanche was that he often understood what Yan Xuanche was thinking faster than others.

Looking at Yan Xuanche's expression at this time, and recalling the many things he had done that went against the norm in the past few days, Wen Jianci had a bold guess in his mind.

That was Yan Xuanche, who had feelings for this young lady of the Yuan family.

This is rare. Compared with the passionate His Highness King Han, His Highness the King of Chu has always been very indifferent to women. You can understand just by looking at his backyard.

Although the appearance of this young lady from the Yuan family is considered to be among the best among all the noble ladies in the capital, Yan Xuanche is not the kind of person who is attracted by lust.

If it's just about beauty, there are not a few women with stunning looks in the world, it's just a superficial appearance.

What's more, when Yan Xuanche heard him mention the second wife of the Yuan family before, he looked non-committal. Could there be some hidden secret that he didn't know about?

Otherwise, how could Yan Xuanche be so unable to let go of Yuan Miaoyi after only seeing her a few times.

Not only did he repeatedly test the Yuan family's intentions, but he even resorted to means to take advantage of Yuan Lingheng. This was not like His Highness the King of Chu in the past. However, Wen Jianci is still very discerning. Although he speaks straightforwardly, he does not always say everything directly and without hesitation.

It’s not necessary for him to say it. In fact, Yan Xuanche has also been thinking about this matter recently.

After leaving Jiyun Temple, there was a hurried encounter of sounds in the bamboo forest. Later, when they met for the first time at the Qionghua Banquet, their voices and faces overlapped.

In the subsequent turmoil in the court, Yan Xuanche would always wonder what Yuan Miaoyi would do if she faced this matter.

In other words, can she understand the surging undercurrent behind every incident?

The more he thought about it, the more curious he became about Yuan Miaoyi and the more he couldn't let go.

Yan Xuanche, who had always not cared so much about who was around him, slowly finally understood what he wanted, the kind of woman who could stand by his side.

There are many women in Beijing who are either beautiful, virtuous or from outstanding family backgrounds. But what Yan Xuanche wants is someone who can understand his thoughts and stand side by side with him.

No matter what Yan Xuanche was thinking at this moment, or in other words, even if Yuan Miaoyi knew about it, he didn't really care.

Today, Yuan Lingheng stayed at the Yamen and did not come back. Xiao Yunyue finally found a chance to meet his sweetheart.

"I swear, it was really my mother who saw it. If you don't agree, how can I tell others about it?"

Xiao Yunyue, who had a reputation in Youzhou as a child crying at night, was holding up four fingers and swearing to Yuan Miaoyi with an anxious look on his face.

Ever since Princess Jinyang noticed Xiao Yunyue's Xinyue and Yuan Miaoyi last time, Xiao Yunyue had been looking for an opportunity to tell Yuan Miaoyi about it.

But later he went to Duanzhou for business, and Yuan Miaoyi was busy with Yuan Lingheng's marriage. The two of them hadn't seen each other for a while, and Xiao Yunyue had never been able to tell Yuan Miaoyi about it.

Xiao Yunyue said nervously that after Princess Jinyang knew about this, she hurriedly swore to Yuan Miaoyi.

Yuan Miaoyi was not angry: "Young Master, don't worry, the eldest princess will know it when she knows it."

Anyway, they would have to know sooner or later. Yuan Miaoyi guessed that since the eldest princess was so smart and Xiao Yunyue was not good at hiding things in front of his mother, it seemed to be only a matter of time before the eldest princess found out.

Yuan Miaoyi just thought so, but Xiao Yunyue misunderstood Yuan Miaoyi's meaning.

Xiao Yunyue stuttered: "I, I, don't worry, I will go and explain to Ziyu tomorrow that after I come back from Youzhou, your Majesty will grant the marriage."

In Xiao Yunyue's mind, since Yuan Miaoyi didn't mind that her mother knew about their affairs, it meant that she had acquiesced in marrying him. If he hadn't been about to return to Youzhou, Xiao Yunyue would have wanted his mother to come to propose marriage tomorrow.

When Yuan Miaoyi heard Xiao Yunyue's words, she knew that he had misunderstood the meaning of her words.

But she just blinked and didn't explain anything. She just smiled and said, "I'm afraid my brother will be shocked by the Marquis."

Brother: Haha, I won’t agree
