After Lin Xiu persuaded Kong Yingda to leave, he returned to Cheng'en Palace.

Li Chengqian and Changsun Chong were surprised to learn that Lin Xiu had successfully persuaded Kong Yingda to leave. How could that old guy succeed in persuading him to leave?

So Li Chengqian immediately asked about the method.

Lin Xiu said, "Your Highness, after I went out, I kept praising Confucius, saying that he has the character of Confucius and will be able to continue his unique knowledge for the past saints in the future. He also said that the prince studied too late last night and was infected with the cold wind, so he could not see him!"

"So that's it! I'll continue my unique skills to the past saints. This is definitely the lifelong ambition of Old Man Kong. If it can be achieved, it will be worth it if he dies. Still Lin Xiu will flatter him. Why didn't I expect this sentence?" Li Chengqian couldn't help but praise, but then he said curiously: "Apart from these, did he say nothing else?"

"Master Sun said something... and said he wanted to see the saint." Lin Xiu pretended to be difficult to speak.

Li Chengqian snorted coldly: "It must be said that I am lacking in virtue and am obsessed with enjoyment! These old guys are good people? They can't play anymore, otherwise they would have married young girls long ago! If he doesn't go to the saint to impeach, it wouldn't be him. Don't pay attention to him, let's drink!"

After being the crown prince for so long, Li Chengqian has become accustomed to being impeached.

After three rounds of drinking, Lin Xiu and Li Dejian said goodbye, and Changsun Chong followed closely behind.

Lin Xiu and Changsun Chong "relieve the past grudges". In fact, they had their own ulterior motives and ignored each other when they left the palace.

After leaving the palace, Lin Xiu and Li Dejian walked together.

Seeing that Li Dejian was about to speak, Lin Xiu smiled and said, "Brother Li asks if you have anything to say. It's not good to hold it in!"

"Brother Lin went out to meet Kong Yingda. He really coaxed him away by flattering him?" Li Dejian said in surprise.

Lin Xiu smiled and said, "Of course not. I told Kong Yingda: The son does not teach his father and son, and the laziness of the teacher is not strict. The prince did not teach well, which was the fault of the saint and the teacher. He felt ashamed in his heart and naturally wanted to leave."

"Oh, Brother Lin, how can you say that! Kong Yingda will definitely go to the saint to complain. If the saint is angry, he will definitely be more harsh on the prince. Then the prince will blame you!" Li Dejian said.

Lin Xiu smiled and said, "What you said is possible, but Kong Yingda and the saint will not tell the prince about this. If they say it out, wouldn't they admit that the son will not teach the father and son? The saint will be strict with the prince, but it has nothing to do with me. Of course, if Brother Li told the prince, the prince would definitely blame me!"

"Who did Brother Lin think of me? How could I be a two-faced villain?" Li Dejian said angrily, and then asked again: "Brother Lin's behavior today makes me wonder!"

Lin Xiu said: "Do you think I will avoid the prince's kindness, just like Fang Yi loves them?"

"That's right! I thought you would avoid it, but you chose to accept it when facing the prince's kindness. But when you saw Kong Yingda, you criticized the prince again, which... made me unable to understand your purpose." Li Dejian said truthfully.

Li Jing asked Li Dejian and Lin Xiu to get along well, so he could become friends who share weal and woe. Li Dejian naturally believed in his father's vision, so he was very honest when he got along with Lin Xiu. Because Li Dejian felt that Lin Xiu was extremely smart and the more honest Lin Xiu was, the more he could become a close friend. Instead, it would be hidden and a barrier would be formed.

In response to Li Dejian's inquiry, Lin Xiu replied: "First of all, Fang Yiai and I are different. When they contact the prince, they will cause trouble, but I will not. Secondly, when I first arrived in Chang'an City, I need to expand my connections. In this connection, there are those who are sincerely intimately friends with me, such as you, Qin Huaidao and the Cheng family. You can also have enemies, such as Changsun Chong. Of course, you can also be someone who wants to use me."

After a pause, Lin Xiu said again: "And those who use me can naturally be used by me. In fact, I am the same as yours, but yours is pure, and my purpose is not pure."

"Brother Lin knows what I want to do?" Li Dejian said in shock.

Lin Xiu smiled and said, "Who doesn't want his father to be proud of himself? If you want to surpass Uncle Li, I can feel your ambition!"

Li Dejian was immediately silent.

He never told anyone about this. In everyone's eyes, he was the son of the God of War in the Tang Dynasty and could inherit the position of Duke in the future. However, no one expected that he wanted to surpass his father!

"Brother Lin, how long have we known each other? You have seen my mind so thoroughly. I don't know what to say!" Li Dejian's expression was rich and he looked unexpected.

Lin Xiu smiled and said, "Some people have been with each other for life and have been friends with alcohol and meat. Some people can be regarded as confidants without having to get along for too long."

"Brother Xiu, do you think I did something wrong?" Li Dejian suddenly changed his name and couldn't help asking.

After pondering, Lin Xiu said, "I did something wrong! You shouldn't have contacted the prince!"

Li Dejian was silent again.

What's the use of knowing that you are wrong? I have already chosen! There are many things that you know may be ineffective, but you have to go to the end, so you don't hit the wall and don't look back!

"What's wrong? I'm in a bad mood? This is not Li Dejian I know." Lin Xiu joked.

Li Dejian came to his senses and smiled and said, "I still want to persevere. The prince is the eldest son. Although he has shortcomings, he will not make serious mistakes. If a saint attaches so much importance to his relatives, he will definitely be able to inherit the throne!"

"Ahem cough cough..." Lin Xiu was choked.

Is the rebellion a serious mistake?

In addition, Li Shimin attaches importance to his relatives?

Come on, attract a soul, call Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji out to chat.

"What's wrong?" Li Dejian said curiously.

Lin Xiu waved his hand and said, "It's okay! Who will know what will happen in the future?"

Li Dejian nodded, then asked curiously: "By the way, Brother Xiu, what do you want to do in the future?"

Lin Xiu smiled bitterly and said, "You are the third person I came to Chang'an City to ask me what I want to do in the future! To be honest, I haven't found it yet. I used to have it, but now I'm a little confused. If I really want to say one, it's to obey everything and do everything!"

"Brother Xiu, your ambition is so great that you have no limit!" Li Dejian gave a thumbs up.

It seems simple to follow the original intention, but it is nothing more than doing whatever you want, but what if you want to do is bigger? For example, if I want to be an emperor, if I want to go to heaven, can these be done?

Lin Xiu smiled and said, "Just be high and not too ambitious, it's enough."

The two looked at each other and laughed.

Lin Xiu returned to Fang Mansion and walked through the corridor, he happened to see Fang Ruoqing studying here.

Among the three sons and one daughter of the Fang family, Lin Xiu and Fang Yiai have spent the longest time together. The eldest son of Fang Yizhi has already had a career and is the eldest son of the Fang family. He is usually busy. The third son of the eldest son of the third son is the smartest, but he has been in poor health since childhood and has also studied in the Imperial College. He only has fishing for two days and has been drying the net for three days, and always hides in his own room to become a united person.

Finally, it was Fang Ruoqing, this girl Bingxue smart.

"The third brother is here!" Fang Ruoqing saw Li Xiu, hurriedly hid the books in her hand behind her, and her pretty face blushed.

When Lin Xiu saw this scene, he smiled and thought Fang Ruoqing was reading books that were not suitable for children, otherwise why would she be so shy?

The sixteen-year-old Fang Ruoqing is already graceful.
