"What a coincidence."

Shen Yuze is still dressed in snow-white clothes, with the appearance of a modest gentleman. There are only a few people on the lonely cold winter street, which makes him look like a peerless man.

Xu Yuanqing looked at him with very complicated emotions in his heart. When he was not Xu Shizi, he looked at him in black and white. He stood out from the crowd of kind-hearted male protagonists. His ambition was worthy of his means, and he played every step of the way to play with people's hearts.

He had liked him very much.

But many things are difficult to decide without being there. During the ten years he became Xu Shizi, he was plagued by illnesses, suffering from chronic illnesses and lying on the sick bed for a long time.

When a person is sick, his heart is the most vulnerable, and many demands will be lowered again and again. He recovered from the serious illness at the beginning, capable of writing and martial arts, and later only wants the people who care about him to be safe.

He wanted to see the male lead he liked very much at first, but the longer he got sick, the longer his will was consumed, and after being framed by Shen Qiwen, he recalled the various behaviors of the male lead in the book, like waking up from a big dream, which made him think about the book.Everyone stares at him.

He thought that if he secretly blocked Shen Yuze's official career, he would ruin everything, but unfortunately he still underestimated him.

Because of the luck of the male protagonist, Xu Yuanqing always looked at him with a bit of fear in his heart, but he hid his emotions very well, his peach blossom eyes were indifferent, and his brows were raised slightly impatiently.Not weak, "It shouldn't be a coincidence."

Shen Yuze smiled lightly when he heard the words. He has been in trouble since he was a child, and he has learned a lot about his ability to perceive words and emotions. The first time he saw him, he knew that Xu Yuanqing didn't like him. Even though he tried his best to hide it, there was still a hint of disgust in his eyes.

He asked himself that he had no contact with Xu Shizi, so he would not annoy him for no reason, probably because of his saving the prince.

He took it calmly and didn't care about his indifference, "Your Majesty doesn't take the usual path, but where are you going?"

Xu Yuanqing asked coldly, "What? Where I go is related to you?"

Speaking of him moving forward, Shen Yuze walked slowly with him, even though he was being sneered at by him, there was still a faint smile on his face, looking at his gentle and jade-like appearance.

"Perhaps on the same road?"

With the cold wind piercing his face, Xu Yuanqing gathered his fur collar, hid his hands in his sleeves, and said unhurriedly, "If you want different things, how can you go the same way?"

Shen Yuze: "What does your son want?"

Xu Yuanqing looked at him sideways, Shen Yuze was fair and clean, with slender eyes, and when he smiled like crescent moons, he always looked like a modest gentleman with a gentle appearance, even if he didn't smile, there was always a faint smile in his eyes, which made people feel kind and not threatening.

For a moment, Xu Yuanqing did let down his vigilance, but it was only for a moment.

He turned his head to look at the cold street, and sneered, "I'm afraid that what I wish and wish will run counter to Mr. Shen."

Shen Yuze was half a step faster than him, and he could see his face with sideways eyes. When he first saw him that day, he knew that the words of "the most beautiful woman in the capital" were true. Looking at him now, he is still breathtakingly beautiful.

Such an alluring face is always cold in front of him, no matter how gentle he is, he still refuses to be far away, he asked softly, "Is it because I saved the crown prince, that's why you treat me like this?"?”

Hearing this, Xu Yuanqing stopped, turned slightly to look at him, with a dignified expression, "Master Shen has been in the prime minister's mansion for many years, you should know that I am at odds with the crown prince, if I am pleasant to you, won't you be worried?"

"What are you worried about?" Shen Yuze also turned to face him, but his expression was very gentle, and he asked knowingly, "Are you worried that your son will be bad for me?"

Xu Yuanqing did not answer.

The two looked at each other, standing on the cold wind howling street, with different thoughts.

Xu Yuanqing endured the pain and looked at him directly. He knew that Shen Yuze was used to pretending, so he couldn't back down.

After a long time, Shen Yuze relaxed first, smiled slightly, and changed the subject, "Is the prince going to find A Yuan?"

Ah Yuan?

Xu Yuanqing's expression sank, he turned around and continued walking, without answering, he asked, "Is Mr. Shen free?"

Shen Yuze was not annoyed when his face was swept away, he greeted him with a smile, and raised his hands in a bow, "It seems that the son has a grudge, so I will not go on the same road with the son."

Xu Yuanqing walked forward without looking back, thinking about the content of the original book every step of the way, Shen Yuze is really a dangerous person.

He took a detour and arrived in front of an inn in a short while. The waiter led the way, and he followed him to the innermost guest room on the second floor. He thanked the waiter and asked the waiter to leave first.

"My son?"

The one who opened the door was Xunniang, who was surprised when she saw the person in front of her, "Why is it you?"

In the past, it was Liu Qian who came to see her, but recently he went to help Xiang Changning, and Xu Yuanqing also decided to come and see her in person, so it was normal for her to be surprised.

After entering the room, Xu Yuanqing saw two cups of tea on the table, he sat down calmly, and asked her if she was well.

"That's great." Xunniang naturally put away the used cup and poured him a new one, "How is your son?"

"same as usual."

Xunniang nodded, stood up and thanked her, "I haven't thanked my son for saving my life yet."

Seeing that she was about to salute, Xu Yuanqing quickly stopped her and kicked her lightly to force her to sit down, "It's just a win-win situation, it doesn't have to be like this."

Xunniang didn't hesitate anymore, and asked straightforwardly, "What do you want to do next?"

Xu Yuanqing pushed the teacup on the table away, put his arms on the table, and after thinking about it, he asked, "Does Miss Xun understand Gu poison?"

"Gu poison?" Xun Niang was slightly taken aback, and then she was even more shocked when she thought of something, "My son suspects..."

She stopped the words in her throat without asking.

Xu Yuanqing stood up and went to the window. The location of this inn is not good, it is not facing the street and there is no traffic. He is familiar with the topography of the capital. When he placed Xunniang, he immediately thought of this place.

It happened to be able to see Duke Huai's mansion.

Xunniang looked at him, he was tall, and even the heavy clothes couldn't suppress his aura, but his brows were always covered with sickness, which made him look weak, not masculine, always giving people a feeling of melancholyA thousand feelings.

Xu Yuanqing shook hands on the window sill slightly, swept away the gloom in his eyes, and turned back with a calm expression, "There is something I want to ask the girl for help."

Xunniang hurriedly stood up and made a solemn promise, "Please tell me, my son, I will definitely do my best."

Xu Yuanqing showed a treacherous smile, and pointed out the window, "I've wronged you to be a maid for a while."

"Huh?" Xunniang was full of doubts, stood up and went to the window, followed his finger to see that it was Duke Huai's mansion. She had noticed before that Xu Shizi placed her here for a purpose.She only thought that she was observing from a distance, but she didn't expect that she was going to go deep into the enemy's camp.

Seeing that Xunniang didn't speak, as if she was struggling with something, Xu Yuanqing asked softly, "Is it difficult to find a girl?"

Xunniang hurriedly shook her head, "No embarrassment."

"Don't worry, Miss Xun, I will never let you put yourself in danger this time." Xu Yuanqing promised, and the melancholy on Xunniang's face dissipated, "I believe in the prince, but what does the prince want me to do?"

Xu Yuanqing sat back with a flick of her sleeves, glanced at the tea stains on the table, and told her what to do.

After leaving the inn, Xu Yuanqing walked back to the street and ran into an acquaintance not long after walking.

"My son."

Lu Qiuling wore a lotus root pink dress, like a delicate peach blossom, and came to greet him with a smile after seeing him.

Xu Yuanqing saw that there was an elderly nanny beside her, who had taught him face-to-face etiquette when he went to the palace. Seeing that the nanny also bowed to him, he nodded slightly as a greeting.

Judging by Lu Qiuling's triumphant expression, he is probably the crown princess.

Shen Qiwen was arguing with her in the palace that day. He thought that an emperor as majestic as Emperor Chongming would definitely not agree, and he didn't know who influenced his thoughts. He abandoned the famous Yang family and chose to resign.For many years, Duke Huai was not involved in government affairs.

Lu Qiuling looked much more stable than before after being trained by the nanny, and asked softly, "Where is your son going?"

"Nothing to go for a stroll." Xu Yuanqing answered casually. When she saw the foster mother, she suddenly became ill-intentioned and said deliberately, "I heard that there are many new things in the Treasure Pavilion. The Princess has gone to see it?"

Without waiting for Lu Qiuling to answer, he continued on purpose, "I think the Princess already has a lot of treasures from the Treasure Pavilion, so I guess they won't be needed."

Lu Qiuling was humiliated by Xiang Changning on the street. It is well known in the capital that this incident has always been a shame in her heart, and no one dared to mention it deliberately in front of her. Xu Yuanqing was clearly provocative, and she was furious for a while: "You..."

"cough!"

Before she could express her anger, she was stopped by a fake cough from the nurse at the side. She immediately suppressed her anger and put on a fake smile, "Ling'er really doesn't need it, so I won't disturb your son's pleasure."

Said that he couldn't wait to get out of the way, wishing that he would disappear immediately.

Seeing this, Xu Yuanqing's mood improved a lot, she nodded slightly to the nanny, and then left under Lu Qiuling's gloomy gaze.

"Xu Yuanqing!"

Xu Yuanqing heard someone calling him again, his trip was not in vain.

You don't need to look back to know who called him. After all, in this huge capital, there are only a handful of people who dare to call him by his name directly, and there are even fewer people who call him so arrogantly.

He didn't bother to look back, and was tired from walking, so he sat down at the wonton stand next to him, ordered a wonton, and was holding chopsticks, when there was a panting person in front of him.

Tang Jiao propped his hands on the low table and asked angrily, "Are you deaf!"

Xu Yuanqing turned his head away in disgust, and didn't bother to talk to him.

Tang Jiao calmed down after panting for a while, sitting opposite him angrily, and asked impatiently, "Where's your dog? Where has he been recently?"

The boss brought wontons, Xu Yuanqing took chopsticks and beat the table, ignoring his presence, the wontons were steaming hot, which greatly increased his appetite, he opened his mouth to bite, Tang Jiao snatched the chopsticks from him, and the wontons fell out of his mouthBack in the bowl.

"What to eat!" Tang Jiao was anxious, and snatched the bowl away for him, "I'm asking you something!"

"Are you free?"

Xu Yuanqing found out that the end of the year was approaching, so everyone was in such a hurry, they had nothing to do to find him unlucky.

Tang Jiao smashed the chopsticks on the table, and asked viciously, "Did you give him any trouble again?"

"You care."

It's really inexplicable when his people need to explain to him what they do.

"Are you going to tell me?"

Xu Yuanqing has always been soft but not tough, Tang Jiao's domineering appearance poked him in the heart, provoked his temper, and slapped his hand that smashed the chopsticks, "Don't say it!"

"Okay!" Tang Jiao rolled up his sleeves and gave him a slap on the head. Xu Yuanqing barely escaped by falling backwards. He kicked his chair away from under the table.He stood up and poked someone with his chopsticks.

Xu Yuanqing dodged left and right, and hit his wrist accurately. Tang Jiao suffered from pain in his hand, and the chopsticks fell. Xu Yuanqing caught it steadily, and threw it to his heart. Xu Yuanqing didn't dare to use too much force, Tang Jiao just continuedIt hurt a bit.

He was young and frivolous, extremely arrogant among the children of the aristocratic family in the capital, and he was seldom humbled. Now that he was inferior in public, he couldn't get angry, and he pushed the low table away as soon as he realized it.

Xu Yuanqing was forced to stand up, caught the wonton with sharp eyesight and quick hands, but unexpectedly missed Tang Jiao, saw him rushing towards him and had to back away, he didn't realize that the chair fell down just now, and his feet were tripped, he thought he was doomed, did notThinking of catching him with one hand, the wonton that was about to fly was also caught.

The visitor kicked Tang Jiao away from the rushing Tang Jiao, and stabilized his figure with a turn, showing his vigorous and vigorous skills.

Xu Yuanqing's face turned towards that person, but he didn't see his face clearly, but a sense of familiarity came to him spontaneously. When he pushed the person away, it turned out that, as expected, Xiang Changyuan was everywhere.

Holding the wonton to Changyuan, he looked at him worriedly, "Is your son alright?"

Tang Jiao, who fell down, got up angrily, looked at the onlookers and grinned away in fright, and looked back at the people who came out, furious, "to Changyuan!"

He knew that Xu Yuanqing was a sick man, so he didn't really want to do anything to him. He thought that Liu Qian was his secret guard. If he saw him hurt, he would definitely come out to stop him. He didn't expect that he didn't attract the people he wanted to see, but attracted people who hated him.people.

Seeing more and more people watching, Xu Yuanqing paid for the wontons and damaged tables and chairs and dragged Xiang Changyuan away, not bothering to care about the crazy Tang Jiao.

After walking a long way, Xu Yuanqing stopped when he got into a small alley. Looking back, Xiang Changyuan was still foolishly holding the wonton, speechless for a while.

Looking at Xiang Changyuan, he stared straight at the wontons, thinking that he wanted to eat them, so he quickly handed them over, "It shouldn't be cold yet."

Xu Yuanqing looked at him without saying a word, and the expression in his eyes gradually softened.

"Young Master, wait a moment." Xiang Changyuan suddenly remembered something, handed him the bowl and ran away.

After a while, he came with a pair of chopsticks.

Looking at the chopsticks in his hand, Xu Yuanqing felt a ripple in his heart. To be honest, no one in this world has treated him so well except Li Ying.

It would be a lie to say that he is not moved, and his heart is not made of stone.

Xiang Changyuan scratched his head, "I'm afraid you'll only find such chopsticks after waiting for a long time."

"Could it be possible to make jade!" Although Xu Yuanqing was touched, it didn't stop him from being eccentric. He raised his hand and grabbed the chopsticks, and sat down on the next step, preparing to taste the hard-won wontons.Mouth was blocked again.

He looked up at him angrily, and said to Chang Yuan guiltily, "Wait a minute."

As he spoke, he took out a slender silver needle from his sleeve, stabbed it into the wonton under Xu Yuanqing's gaze, and pulled it out after a while. After seeing that the silver needle hadn't changed, he put away his hand and sat down with a smile on his face.He went to the side, "It's okay, the prince can eat."

Xu Yuanqing: "..."

The food in the mansion was given to Zuo Yue after he passed the test, and Xiang Changyuan really surprised him everywhere when he met someone who took a drug test in front of him for the first time.

Xu Yuanqing looked at the wontons in the bowl, the heat gradually dissipated, feeling sad for a while, and suddenly lost his appetite.

Xiang Changyuan: "Won't your son eat it?"

Xu Yuanqing turned to look at him, "Did you eat for a drug test?"

"No..." Before he finished speaking, Xiang Changyuan realized something, and was silent for a while, before saying, "Because I'm worried about your son."

Xu Yuanqing didn't mean to blame him, only those who cared about him would care about his life and death. He understood this truth, but his mood fell for a moment, "Xiang Changyuan, I don't want to live so tired."

"I know."

"I was craving wontons just now."

"Um."

Xu Yuanqing: "I don't want to eat now."

"No, you want to eat!" Xiang Changyuan suddenly became serious, snatched the bowls and chopsticks from his hand, and pulled him up.

Seeing that he suddenly became excited, Xu Yuanqing ignored his low mood, saw him give wontons to beggars on the side of the road, and then took him to an inn with an unfathomable appearance.

I said something to the shopkeeper, and then took him to the back kitchen.

"My son, please wait a moment." Xiang Changyuan found a place for him to sit down, then rolled up his sleeves and went to the stove.

Xu Yuanqing realized later, is he going to cook?

"In the long run?"

"Hush!" Xiang Changyuan smiled, put his index finger on his mouth to signal him not to speak, took the flour and started kneading the dough, the martial arts practitioner was strong, and he smashed the dough on the chopping board with a "bang bang" sound.

"Is there any taboo, Shizi?"

Xu Yuanqing didn't know how to cook, so he was stunned to see his smooth operation, and when he heard the question, he shook his head, "No."

Xiang Changyuan responded, stirred the minced meat, and started making wontons in a short while. His movements were so skillful that one could think he was a chef.

When the water boiled, Xiang Changyuan picked a few wontons that he was most satisfied with and put them in the pot. After waiting for a while, he fished them out confidently, and deliberately shouted to Xu Yuanqing, "It's out of the pot."

Xu Yuanqing watched him bring wontons, the dense mist showed that his face was stained with flour.

He took the bowls hesitantly, seeing that they were all full, his mood was even more indescribable.

"Please." Xiang Changyuan thoughtfully handed the chopsticks, squatted on the ground, looked at him with his head propped up, his watery eyes were full of smiles.

Xu Yuanqing was very uncomfortable being looked at by him, so he opened his eyes slightly, and tasted one, he had to pass the test before eating on his knees, and he never ate randomly when he was outside, and today he just suddenly wanted to taste the food on the side of the road.Tan, didn't expect to kill Tang Jiao, thinking that couldn't eat it.

I didn't expect to eat something more precious than the roadside stall, although it was very salty!

Xiang Changyuan's eyes were filled with anticipation, "Is it delicious?"

Xu Yuanqing swallowed, "It's okay."

"Everyone in my family said it was unpalatable. I was worried just now, but you also thought it was unpalatable."

Xu Yuanqing thought to himself: Is it possible that your family members are telling the truth.

Xu Yuanqing smiled perfunctorily, put down the bowl and chopsticks after eating a few more, it was hard for him to ignore the person squatting in front of him, his watery eyes stared straight at him, like a puppy pleasing its master.

Xiang Changyuan saw that he had finished eating, and still maintained the posture of squatting in front of him, smiling and bending his eyes.

"In the long run?"

Xiang Changyuan responded, "My son!"

"Are you so kind to others?"

"Dang..." The voice stopped abruptly, Xiang Changyuan was stunned, something sounded in his heart, like a box that was locked layer by layer, the lock was opened, and the contents inside were about to come out.

He likes green mountains and green waters, blue sky and white clouds, and family and friends, but he has never cared so much about them.

Therefore, he often thinks about Xu Shizi, and always smiles when he cares about him. Is it because he is a very good person that he likes him?Is that all?
