After I was reborn, I became Mrs. Chief Assistant

Chapter 106 Shame
A voice suddenly sounded from behind Yun Zhuo, and then she heard Pei Wanyin turn her head and call: "Brother Prince, Mr. Xie."

Mr. Xie?
She then turned her head, and sure enough, the man standing next to Prince Pei Kuan with a reserved and cold face was none other than Xie Jie.

She smiled at Xie Jie's curved eyes, and Xie Jie nodded slightly in response.

Pei Wanyin also answered Pei Kuan's words at this time: "We are here to enjoy the flowers. Brother Prince and Mr. Xie have come and gone for a while, are they going back?"

Pei Kuan nodded: "I won't disturb your elegant mood, my husband and I will go to Father Huang's place first."

"Okay." Pei Wanyin nodded obediently.

After they left, the noble lady who had just talked to Yun Zhuo said again: "In short, you are very powerful. Wei Yanran and Zhao Yuying have many tricks, be careful of them."

Before Yun Zhuo had time to speak, she stepped back and said to the ladies behind her: "Since the princess and Miss Yun Si are here, why don't we go for a walk?"

It can be seen that these people have a faint posture of respecting her, so after she finished speaking, all the girls responded with each word.

When they also left, Pei Wanyin looked at Yun Zhuo in shock: "I didn't expect that."

Yun Zhuo: "?"

"The one just now is my cousin, Princess Kangle. She has always been a noble person. Although she was born in the general's mansion and her mother is the eldest princess, what she despises the most is the young lady who comes from a noble family in Kyoto. If she has some Knowledge is not bad, but she also looks down on those who have no ink, or who have some knowledge but only know how to write. "

"So you can also see that she didn't have a good look at me just now. But for you, how do you say that word, she is amiable! I really have never seen her be so gentle to anyone. "

Zheng Suqing, the lord of Kangle County, Yun Zhuo knew this person.In her previous life, she founded the Xileng Poetry Club together with several ladies from the capital, and most of the members absorbed by the poetry club were official ladies who cared about the country and the people.Different from other poetry clubs, the meaning of the existence of this poetry club is not to write some sour poems to hurt the spring and autumn every day, but to do a lot of practical things.

It was bitter and cold at the border, so they raised donations; treacherous ministers were in power, and they also jointly signed a letter; the emperor wanted to build a palace, and it was they who stood up and said that it was a waste of money.

It's not that they are trying to meddle in politics, it's just that they, like many scholars in the world, sincerely hope that Daye can become better, so that every citizen will not be chilled by it.This kind of mood prompted them to set up a poetry club, and urged them to do so many things.

Zheng Suqing, indeed, has lofty capital.

Yun Zhuo lowered his eyes and let out an "oh".

……

After Pei Kuan and Xie Jie walked a long distance, they suddenly smiled: "I used to think that my third brother was not close to women, but now I realize that it's not that he's not close to women, it's just that he kept trying to cling to her. His women are not enough to make him tempted."

Xie Jie followed him, even the cold expression on his face remained unchanged, as if he didn't understand Pei Kuan's meaning, he asked, "Why did Your Highness say that?"

As his name suggests, Pei Kuan has always been gentle in his dealings with others. Xie Jie was his teacher, who taught him the way of being a king and governing the country, teaching him the way of being a son and respecting his relatives, and also teaching him how to behave in the world.He has always respected Xie Jie very much, and almost never blush with Xie Jie.

But today he felt all kinds of gloom in his heart, and he just wanted to vent it to Xie Jie.Now that there is no one around, he lost his scruples and said directly to Xie Jie: "I thought that my relationship with the teacher was enough to support us to treat each other without hiding and calculating. At least...at least my heart towards the teacher is like a clear pool Mingjing, don’t dare to lie in the slightest. The teacher once said that if you want people to treat me with sincerity, I must first treat them with sincerity.”

"But, teacher, why don't you count your words?"

Xie Jie looked at him, waiting for his next words.

The half-grown boy has clear eyebrows, revealing a stubbornness in his eyes. Although he is wearing a long robe embroidered with chi patterns with silver thread, and his long hair is tied up with jade hairpins, he seems to have a kind of calmness that does not match his age, but he uses such When he looked at people with his eyes, he showed his childishness again.

Still a child.Xie Jie thought.

"Why didn't you tell me that you came forward to block the third brother who wanted to hire Miss Yun Fourth as his concubine? I thought you would tell me, but I waited for a long time, but you seem to have never had such a thing before. Never mentioned a single word in front of me. So the student would like to ask you today, are you doing this for the third brother, or for the fourth girl Yun?"

"What can I do if I know?" Xie Jie asked without answering.He was still indifferent, no matter whether Pei Kuan accused him or questioned him, it would not make him lose his demeanor and sense of propriety.

Pei Kuan's guilt caused by his anger and questioning the teacher soon cooled down because of Xie Jie's words. He looked at Xie Jie helplessly, his stubbornness persisted, and he was a little confused.

——He couldn't tell what to do if he knew.He wasn't even angry because Xie Jie prevented Pei Yan from marrying Yun Zhuo, he was simply angry because Xie Jie had kept him from it.He just wanted a result, not to make trouble or to ask Xie Jie for anything.

Seeing his appearance, Xie Jie understood his thoughts: "It's my fault, I never explained the meaning of this sentence to His Highness clearly. But—" He suddenly changed the subject, and his gentle eyebrows became sharp, He looked at Pei Kuan, "I think Your Highness can understand that in this world, sincerity and deceit are not absolute. Whether it is honesty or deceit, good or evil, in the end it is a cloak that one person uses to cover up. "

"You are the prince, and you will become the king of Daye in the future. This road is destined to be difficult. Thorns and bones, dust and flesh and blood are destined to intertwine under your feet. You can't easily trust anyone. Even if it's me, even if It's your father, queen mother."

Xie Jie's voice was cold, and to Pei Kuan's ears, it was as if ice balls full of edges and corners had been poured into the lungs and stomach, and blood was dripping everywhere.

Then he woke up from the chaos.

People always have to wake up from pain.

He didn't dare to speak anymore, not only lowered his brows and eyes, but even his breath became weak.The way to be a king has never been the way of Yangguan, but a single-plank bridge.Even if thousands of troops surrounded him, he was the only one left in the end.Xie Jie had taught him this principle long ago, but he fancied that Xie Jie could accompany him and protect him to climb to the highest place.

So he entangled Xie Jie with all his strength, and concealing even a little bit was like facing a big enemy.He was ashamed of his delusions and the questioning of Xie Jie just now.

"Only people who have no interest in each other can face each other naked." Xie Jie finally said.

Pei Kuan raised his eyes again, only to see Xie Jie's figure in his loose white robe swaying in the wind.
