Chapter 81 It's Time to Get Sick (Part [-])
Wen Jing expected that Fenghuang would suspect him of pretending to be sick, but he didn't expect that this incident would not cause any waves.

Fenghuang neither reprimanded nor sent anyone to check on his condition, let alone rewarding medicinal materials and supplements.

The Lu family, Wen Chengzong and others complained a lot, thinking that the emperor was too mean and ruthless, but Wen Jing's heart became much more at ease.

It's a blessing in disguise, and you can't just look at things on the surface.

The reason why His Majesty is suspicious of Xia Ning is because he is too shrewd; he makes a few stupid tricks occasionally, but it can reassure His Majesty.

Wen Jing ordered his servants to close the door tightly, and refused everyone to visit, even the people sent by the prince and his in-laws Lu Su to visit the sick were turned away.

Without a backbone, the people of the prince's faction are like ants on a hot pot, but no one dares to act rashly.

As a result, the court hall is rare and quiet, and even the efficiency of the government offices has been improved.

After dispatching the envoys of Yu State, the Mid-Autumn Festival has arrived.

Xia Huaixun, who was so busy recently, finally had time to have a meal with his daughter.

After the meal, the father and daughter sat under the window, chatting while playing chess.

Seeing that her father seemed to be getting thinner, Xia Yueliang jokingly said: "I was thinking about how to make my father thinner, but His Majesty helped me do it for me. It's his old man who has the ability!"

Xia Huaixun raised his eyes and looked at her: "Your child's thoughts are very strange, others are worried that their father is too tired and thin, and he will look lucky if he is fatter.

You wish you could work hard every day for your father, and be as thin as a bamboo pole. "

"I don't care what other people's fathers look like, but my father must be the most beautiful.

Everyone says that you are as handsome and elegant as a fairy in a painting, but have you ever seen a fat fairy in a painting? "

It was the first time Xia Huaixun heard such a statement, laughing so hard that the chess pieces in his hand almost slipped.

"Your mouth, I really don't know what to say as a father."

"Don't be so busy getting complacent, I'm just boasting that I'm good-looking in disguise."

Xia Huaixun laughed even louder, and at the same time, there was a slight bitterness in his heart.

So much alike, so much alike.

Yue'er does look like him, but her personality seems to be more like her mother.

The same cleverness and wit, the same calmness and playfulness.

For more than ten years, he wanted to talk to his daughter about her mother countless times, but every time the words came to his lips, he didn't know how to start.

Yue'er was also surprised that other children cried for their mother all day long, but she never mentioned the word "mother" from the day she spoke.

When you grow up, you can explain it by being sensible, but what about when you were young?

Although Banchi Villa is quiet, it is not isolated from the world. The servants also have their own parents and children.

Doesn't she feel sad when she sees other children being loved by their mothers?
No, the smarter a person is, the more thoughtful he is.

Yue'er must be afraid of bringing up his memories, that's why she doesn't want to mention her mother.

Otherwise, why did she want him to continue these years, even more enthusiastic than her mother?

He also came from childhood, and he has a very good understanding of children's minds.

It was always a man who wanted to continue, and no child needed a stepmother.

Xia Huaixun pondered for a long time, and finally made up his mind.

However, before he could speak, Xia Yueliang had already talked about other things.

"Daddy, is the old fox still hiding in the fox den?"

Xia Huaixun was a little annoyed, and was slipped by the little loach again!
How many times has this happened, he obviously paid great attention to controlling his emotions, but he still couldn't hide it from Yue'er's eyes.

Forget it, since she didn't want to listen, then he didn't mention it.

"Yue'er thought he was pretending to be sick?" He asked back.

"The reason why the old fox has climbed so fast these years is not only because of his wife's support, but mainly because of his ability.

Although His Majesty is not considered a sage, he is not so stupid. Now is the time when he needs to employ people, so how dare he shrink back.

So he must be really sick this time, and it's very serious, but it's hard to say what His Majesty thinks. "

Xia Huaixun said with a smile: "He did annoy His Majesty this time, but it's not that bad to say he lost his Sacred Heart.

After all, the old fox has experienced big winds and waves, and few people can match the ability to turn danger into safety.

The big tree of the crown prince is already unreliable, he is planning to get rid of the relationship first and find another master. "

"So it's really time for his illness?"

"You can't say that, after all, no one wants to be sick, especially at his age."

Xia Yueliang pursed her lips, she had no intention of playing chess.

It's not that she likes to curse people, but if that old fox dies like this, it will be a great thing for the country and the family.

Xia Huaixun threw the chess pieces back into the chess box, and said: "Wen Xiang has fought with your grandfather for decades, how can it be so easy to get results.

It will take more patience to bring him down completely.

Let's take it step by step, won't it take time for him to find another backer? "

Xia Yueliang said: "We can't give him a chance to breathe. It's best to get rid of his old master before he finds a new one."

Xia Huaixun was amused again: "The old fox can hold his breath in his 50s, but Yue'er is only 13 years old and can't wait?"

"Daddy doesn't like being an official, and I don't like you forcing yourself to do things you don't like.

If I get rid of the old fox earlier, my grandfather will let go of his worries, and then my father can take me to play around. That is the life of a fairy. "

Xia Huaixun sighed silently.

After all, he is still a child, and his thoughts are always childish.

For people of their background, it is easy to enter the officialdom, but it is very difficult to get out.

My father accepted the position of Grand Master in order to fulfill his eldest brother, so he gave up half of his real power.

It is not a matter of a day or two to bring down Wen Xiang, and by then my father will be over sixty years old.

It is impossible to hand over the mess of Chaozhong to him, and the two elder brothers can't take over, so it can only fall on his head in the end.

Even if His Majesty is gone, the new emperor still needs someone to support him, and he can't even imagine that kind of immortal life.

Xia Yueliang is actually just talking, she is not really a child, she knows how hard the world of adults is.

And she was a mother, how could she not know the temper of children.

The old fox was mentioned just now to cover up his identity as a time traveler.

Some things may never be exposed in a lifetime, and even if there is a chance, it is not now.

She walked to Xia Huaixun's side, and took his arm: "Tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival, what is Daddy going to do?"

Xia Huaixun raised his eyebrows: "You want me to take you out of the house?"

"There is nothing interesting in the city, or our family will go to the farm in the suburbs. The view there is wide, and the moon is much brighter than in the city."

Xia Huaixun scratched her nose: "It's clear that you want to take advantage of your grandfather's absence and go play wild in the farm, right?"

"Whatever you say, it's settled anyway, I'll go and inform my grandmother and Xiaoci Xiaoyi right away."

Xia Yueliang ran away in a hurry.
