In the dim room, Yang Binglin sat there quietly. The tea cup in front of him was not moved at all, without a trace of smoke, and it was already cool.

squeak..

The door was gently pushed open, and Yang Taiyi's figure appeared. He closed the door behind his back and walked behind Yang Binglin.

"Young Master, there is news."

Yang Binglin's slightly drooped head did not rise, and remained motionless. He just said one word: "Speak."

"Today in court..."

Yang Taiyi told the story in detail what happened in the court.

After Yang Taiyi finished speaking, Yang Binglin's head suddenly lifted up, and the dark light shone on his face, making it look quite gloomy.

Yang Binglin nodded and said silently: "The King of Chu is still..."

Yang Taiyi said softly: "After the court meeting was over, I immediately went to the Prince of Chu's Mansion, but the Prince of Chu... still closed the door and was nowhere to be seen."

"Okay, okay, very good."

Yang Binglin raised his head and laughed. He said a few words in a row. The laughter stopped. Yang Binglin clenched his fists and said with a ferocious expression: "You all look down on me? I will make you pay a heavy price."

After muttering to himself, the expression on Yang Binglin's face returned to calm, his clenched fists slowly loosened, and he said softly: "Go find King Yi."

While talking, Yang Binglin took out a letter and gave it to Yang Taiyi: "What I want to say is all in the letter. King Yi will understand its meaning after reading it."

Yang Taiyi's whole body was shocked. Although he didn't see the words in the letter, he could guess what it said.

"Young Master, if you do this, if the old master knows..."

Yang Binglin turned to look at Yang Taiyi, his half-squinted eyes revealing a strong sense of coldness.

"I'll go find King Yi right now."

Yang Taiyi sighed secretly in his letter, said no more, bowed, turned and left.

.......

The perspective shifts to the You family again.

It was getting dark. Li Xun and You Yuanfeng played two games of chess in succession, each winning one. At this time, You Mingyuan's eldest son You Pinggu came to inform that it was time to eat and everyone had arrived.

Just wait for You Yuanfeng to sit down.

You Yuanfeng waved his hand: "We will eat half an hour later, and I will have the next plate."

Li Xun chuckled and said: "Old man, you and I each win one game, how about we end in a tie?"

"Everything has its own victory or defeat. Best of three games, you and I will play in the next game."

Li Xun smiled, then stood up and put away the chessboard to himself: "Only when you know the choice can you know how to advance or retreat. If you and I have to decide the outcome today, I will play chess tomorrow. I finally have something in my heart."

It’s too much, so I can’t have all the fun.”

"You are so young, but you still dare to talk about life in front of me. You really don't understand the depth of things."

Li Xun laughed loudly and said: "Old man, you are free and easy. You won't be surprised if this junior says something wrong. In that case, it doesn't matter if you have something to say."

"You kid always have something to say. I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse for Min'er to marry you."

You Yuanfeng said blaming words, but his face was full of smiles. Living to his age, he had been ups and downs in officialdom for decades, until he reached the position of Prime Minister. What has he not seen and what has he not experienced? What he said

Who can know whether the remark is an irony or a consideration?

However, judging from his expression, You Yuanfeng is still very satisfied and fond of Li Xun so far.

You Pinggu glanced at Li Xun secretly, feeling quite strange in his heart. You Yuanfeng has a rough personality and a clear distinction between love and hate. People who like him just like him, and people who don't like him just don't like him. It's all reflected on his face. It's obvious.

, and to be honest, there are very few people that You Yuanfeng likes. The entire You family, only the third brother You Pingchuan, can occasionally get close to You Yuanfeng, and other people, even You Mingyuan,

You Yuanfeng also mostly lectures and rarely has a good face.

This Li Xun had only had contact with You Yuanfeng three or two times, but the relationship between the two could be so harmonious that You Pinggu really found it a bit incredible.

Several people left the room and walked towards the living room. On the way, Li Xun and You Yuanfeng chatted.

"Old man, it's been seven or eight days since you returned to the capital, and I haven't seen you go out for a walk, or have relatives and friends come to visit you? Although you are eighty years old, it's not like all your relatives and friends have left before you, right?

"

Li Xun is indeed very surprised. Although You Yuanfeng is eighty, even if all his friends are dead, he was once the Prime Minister of the Political Affairs Hall, and his disciples will definitely have many old friends. These days, it is pulling him and him

I played chess and never saw him go out for a walk.

You Yuanfeng smiled: "Tomorrow is my eightieth birthday, so we can meet you all at once. I am getting old, and I have to visit one by one, and my body and bones can't bear it."

Li Xun nodded, knowing that You Yuanfeng was not telling the truth, but he didn't ask any more questions.

You Pinggu on the side knew that after You Yuanfeng came back, many people came to see him, but the old man just said "no see". Even Liu Zhigu came to visit in person two days ago, but he never saw him.

, You Pinggu asked his father, but You Mingyuan only said one sentence. The old man looked rough and heroic, but who could know his true thoughts?

When we arrived at the living room, Liu Zhigu and Liu Chongji were both here.

"Old man, you came to visit me a few days ago, but you always turned me down."

When they saw You Yuanfeng, everyone stood up. Liu Zhigu bowed his hands and made a joke.

You Yuanfeng chuckled: "Why, after becoming the Prime Minister, you have started to show off? Let me tell you, when you were a kid, I spanked you a lot."

Liu Zhigu smiled bitterly: "What did the old man say? How dare I be so presumptuous in front of you?"

"It's good to know."

You Yuanfeng hummed twice and sat down at the upper table. Only then did the others sit down one by one.

Li Xun did not sit down in a hurry, but looked around. They were all people from the older generation. Younger people like him couldn't even get in through this door.

You Yuanfeng said to Li Xun: "Dog, sit down and eat. What are you doing standing there?"

Li Xun smiled and said: "We are all elders here, I'd better go out to eat."

"Sit down when I ask you to. Don't delay everyone's eating time."

You Yuanfeng waved and said loudly.

You Mingyuan smiled and said: "It's rare that the old man thinks highly of you, so sit down and eat."

Li Xun stopped refusing, went to You Mingyuan's side, picked up the wine bottle, and poured wine for everyone.

You Yuanfeng pretended to be angry and said: "You are a bitch, you don't listen to me, but you are respectful to your father-in-law."

"That's right, my father-in-law is my immediate boss. You are several levels away from me, so you can't usually control me."

In the past few days, Li Xun and You Yuanfeng have become familiar with each other, and they know that the old man will not be angry if they tell some jokes.

"You have good talent, I like you."

As expected, You Yuanfeng was not angry. Instead, he laughed twice, picked up the wine glass, and drank it in one gulp. If he wanted to chat with more like-minded people about "Becoming a Prince in the Empire", follow "Youdu Literature" on WeChat to talk about life and find
