The prince is shameless

Chapter 29

Due to Princess Qingyang's intentional arrangement, the wedding banquet failed to hold the second wedding banquet and broke up unhappy.

On the day when Princess Qingyang was about to leave the capital, there was indeed an assassin who attacked Wen Xing's room at night, but it was a pity that he was caught by the guards of the East Palace.It's just that the assassin turned out to be a dead man, seeing that there was no hope of escape, he committed suicide without leaving any clues about the reason for the assassination.

However, because the Queen's birthday party was approaching, Xie Yi did not continue to follow her.

Wen Xing finally found a chance to go home, and made some insinuations, only to get Wen Yu's ambition to die if there is a fight.

He was taught by Wen Yu since he was a child to be patriotic and loyal to the emperor, and he also expected that it would be impossible to use Wen Yu as a breakthrough to smash the last bit of luck.

In the end, Wen Xing returned to the East Palace with only the sachet Xu Yuning asked him to give to the queen, and obediently followed what Xu Yuning said, and gave the sachet to the queen in his own name as a birthday gift.

More than three months have passed without incident, and the first battle report came down on the frontier under Wen Xing's desperation—it was finally going to war.

"The battle report came from the frontier. After today's court meeting, the emperor asked about the candidate for the lonely general."

After finally fighting to get back to his room, Wen Xing sat in front of the table, but was suddenly stunned by Xie Yi's words.The hand holding the porcelain cup trembled slightly, and he asked as calmly as possible: "Which general did His Highness choose?"

Xie Yi casually poured himself a cup of tea, and said with a smile, "Gu hasn't answered yet. Yunwu obviously came prepared, and the person Gu is considering is your father, your brother, or your uncle."

"Your father has been stationed on the southern border for many years, and he is familiar with the opponents in the terrain, but after all, he is old and may not be able to bear it. And your brother is young and strong, and has a passion. But compared to Yunwu, he may still be more familiar with the north Those nomadic peoples. Your uncle is in the prime of life, but he doesn't have much military exploits, and he has little battlefield experience."

Xie Yi analyzed the three candidates one by one, but in fact he was more inclined to choose Xu Yi, Wen Xing's uncle - after all, Xie Yi also listened to the report of the battle in the previous life at the court meeting from beginning to end, and it is said that Xu Yi Yi has a lot of research on the barbarians on the border, and he may be able to avoid the loss of an excellent general.

Wen Xing's mood was completely different after hearing Xie Yi's words, and he almost tried his best to control himself without losing his composure.He barely suppressed his beating heart, and said tentatively: "Your Highness, why don't you think about my uncle?"

"Huh?" Xie Yi was startled suddenly, and raised his eyes to meet Wen Xing's.

However, Wen Xing thought he was thinking about it on purpose, and quickly added: "Uncle, he has been studying barbarian places such as Yunwu and Donghu all year round, so that he can use them one day. For the minister's parents and elder brother, this time may be a great opportunity for uncle."

"Do you really think so?" Xie Yi asked again with certainty.

After talking for a long time, Wen Xing almost calmed down, nodded and returned a nasal voice, his clear eyes were rarely focused on Xie Yi.

Xie Yi moved the corner of his mouth and smiled, leaving only one sentence "I will consider it alone" before leaving in a hurry.

In the previous life, due to lack of strength development, Emperor Anlong only asked Xie Yi after he had decided on the candidate, as a test to test him.At that time, he also chose these three people to ask Wen Xing, and he clearly remembered that Wen Xing recommended his father and elder brother without hesitation.

He also remembered that Wen Xing's reason at the time was that "a man should serve the country."

But what is the rhetoric just now?

Could it be...

Xie Yi had a faint guess in his heart, and suddenly shivered.

He seemed to finally know why his old man had alienated him so much.

On this side, Wen Xing was a little confused looking at Xie Yi's anxious back, but this confusion was only fleeting.

He remembered that Xie Yi in his previous life asked Xie Yi who he had in mind after Emperor An Long had announced the candidates for the generals.But this life's general is still undecided, Xie Yi ran over to ask for his opinion instead.

That is to say, he is very likely to use Xie Yi's words to reverse the final outcome.

A few more days later, Emperor Anlong really confirmed that the general sent to the southern border was Xu Yi, Wen Xing immediately breathed a sigh of relief, the smile on his face could not be suppressed no matter what.

Xie Yi, who was sitting across from him and told him the news, his eyes darkened, but he quickly adjusted his mood again, saying: "I guess I have been paying attention to this battle in the past few days, Gu Xing may also A lot of busy work. If you are bored, you can go out of the palace for a stroll, it's not good to be bored in the palace all the time."

The smile on Wen Xing's face was slightly stagnant, and he seemed to be very puzzled when he blinked.

According to Xie Yi's temperament, even if he was busy, he definitely didn't want him to go out of the palace too much, why did he suddenly allow him to leave the palace freely?

Xie Yi smiled casually, did not explain, and left in a hurry after making an excuse.

Wen Xing couldn't guess whether he had taken the wrong medicine, but it was Xie Yi who finally realized his determination and accepted Xie Yi's arrangement with peace of mind - this was also according to his wishes, so why not Accepted?

So on the next day, Wen Xing went back to the Wen residence after Xie Yi went to court.

In the past few years, there have been few major battles. Wen Yu only occasionally went to practice the Wen family army trained by the Wen family, while Wen Guang was always elusive.

Wen Xing also didn't understand what his father was doing, but after all, that was his father too, so he couldn't be bothered.

After slowly returning to Wen's mansion, Wen Xing ran into Wen Yu who came back from outside.

"Brother."

Wen Xing called obediently.

Wen Yu obviously went to the Wen family army camp in the suburbs to practice, and he had not taken off his light armor.When he saw Wen Xing, he paused, nodded and said, "Yes. Is there anything going on in the palace recently?"

Wen Yu thought that Wen Xing had something to do this time because he would only go back to the mansion because he had something to do all the year round.

Wen Xing followed Wen Yu into the mansion while smiling and said: "It's okay, His Royal Highness recently allowed me to leave the palace freely, so I'll come back for a while."

"Why did the prince suddenly become so benevolent?" Every time Wen Xing returned home, Wen Yu looked at the joy in his eyes, and naturally regarded Xie Yi as being extraordinarily strict at ordinary times.

"I don't know either." Wen Xing shook his head, continued with a smile, "Whatever, I'll go back to the yard first."

Wen Yu smiled lightly, rubbed the ends of Wen Xing's hair, and said softly, "Go."

Getting used to the increasingly intimate relationship with his elder brother in recent years, Wen Xing didn't find it strange, so he smiled and turned to walk towards his yard.

The scenery in the courtyard is still the same as it was ten years ago.

Wen Xing walked back to his room with ease, and asked Tang An to be called for him by the way.

Although Tang An has changed her name to Qiu Jing, Wen Xing is still used to calling her by her real name in private.

After ten years of training, Tang An's martial arts at the age of Fangzhi and Ji have become very superb.Although she still can't beat battle-tested fighters like Wen Yu, it's not a problem to single out someone like Xie Lian who has only been practicing martial arts all year round.

"Why is Second Young Master looking for his subordinates?"

Tang An was dressed in a black suit that was easy to move, and the scars on his face were covered by something, so there was no trace of them.There was a slight alienation in a pair of black eyes, and the tone of voice was cold, no longer the lively and intimacy of childhood.

After all, they have only had occasional contacts in the past ten years, and Wen Xing was not surprised by Tang An's attitude. He put down the porcelain cup in his hand, and asked softly, "How is your family doing recently?"

Ever since Fei Qing entered the palace, Wen Xing saw that Tang An was idle and had nothing to do, so he entrusted her to watch the Wen residence in secret.

Tang An lowered his eyelashes, and reported the current situation of Wen's residence in detail, most of them were trivial things, and generally speaking, everything was fine, except for one thing——

"...However, the subordinates found that your father's whereabouts are quite strange."

Tang Anxiu raised his eyebrows slightly, and he seemed a little hesitant when speaking, as if he was hesitating whether to continue or not.

Wen Xing suddenly remembered the kit that he had destroyed, and motioned her to continue.

"Since Princess Qingyang got married, your father often went out after lunch and didn't return home until late at night."

Up to this point, Tang An paused again, knelt down on one knee and clasped his fists with both hands to plead guilty: "This subordinate is incompetent. I have tried to follow him several times, but every time I lost it halfway. Please punish me, my lord."

"It's okay." Wen Xing quickly helped her up, "Does mother know about this?"

After Tang An thanked Wen Xing for forgiveness, he got up and stood still, and replied: "According to my observation, the son's mother and elder brother should know about this, but they don't seem to have any doubts about it."

Don't you have any doubts?

There was a layer of thought between Wen Xing's brows.

According to Tang An, the timing of his father leaving at noon and returning at night was too sensitive.If it really has something to do with what happened 20 years ago, then it is understandable that the mother does not doubt it, but if the elder brother does not doubt it, it may be different from what he guessed.

In addition, he is basically not at the house on weekdays, if he asks his elder brother about this, it is possible to re-block most of the barriers that he has finally cleared.

Wen Xing stood on the spot and thought for a while, but finally sighed softly and stopped thinking about it.

After all, neither the mother nor the elder brother reacted much, maybe this is really just a coincidence.

He collected his thoughts, put on a gentle smile again, and said: "I understand, you have worked hard these days."

"This is the responsibility of the subordinate." Tang An replied respectfully.

Wen Xing was not entangled in this topic, and with a thought, he suddenly said: "With my father and brother around, nothing major will happen to Wen's residence. Would you like to pretend to be my servant and follow me into the palace?"

With Yun Nian not around, he still wasn't used to being without someone by his side, and Wen Xing, the other Xie Yi's choice, was not very trustworthy, so after thinking about it, Tang An became the best candidate.

Tang An was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, and then replied: "This is my honor."

Wen Xing was worried that Tang An just didn't dare to refuse, so he confirmed it again uneasy: "Are you really willing?"

Seeing his appearance, Tang An, whose face was paralyzed from the beginning to the end, pulled out a slight smile, and said: "The life of the subordinates was saved by the young master, so naturally he is sincerely willing to serve the young master."

Hearing these words, Wen Xing believed her, and explained with a smile: "After all, the situation in the palace is complicated, and it's relatively not free. I'm afraid you won't really like it."

Then he changed the subject again, and said: "Now you and I are both adults, and I have already told Emperor An Long that I have no intention of starting a family. To avoid suspicion, I may have to trouble you to disguise yourself as a man."

In order to conceal his identity conveniently, Tang Anben often pretended to be a teenager, and he was not dissatisfied with this, so he agreed directly.

Guessing that the time was about the same, Wen Xing gave Tang An a few days to prepare and then went back to the palace first.
