Chapter 573 Want to sit in that position?

Xiao Lingyan went to the battlefield for his brother and narrowly escaped death. Now he is still trapped in the vortex of political struggle, and his life is in danger at any time.

He paid so much, lived and died with Xiao Lingpu, and shared the huge risk of seizing the throne. But in the end, Xiao Lingpu ascended the throne, what could Xiao Lingyan get?

When Xiao Ge was on the throne, he was a prince, and he could still participate in politics and do what he wanted to do. Because the future throne was undecided, ministers and various factions did not dare to disrespect him openly.

After Xiao Lingpu ascends the throne, Xiao Lingyan will no longer have the rights he currently has, and he will be inferior to the ministers of the court. After all, these princes are guarded and jealous by the emperor, and whatever they do will make the emperor worry. So in the end

A good way of life is to travel around the mountains and rivers, be an idle prince who does not care about political affairs, and follow Kang Shilin's rules of conduct. Only in this way can he live a smooth life.

As a mother, how could Concubine Cen bear to let her son have trouble with his marriage again?

"Then...do you have a girl you like now? If so, tell your mother. No matter who she is or what her status is, my mother will help you get her in and will never let you suffer in the marriage.

A little aggrieved." Concubine Cen said this very carefully, lest she make Xiao Lingyan worry too much.

Xiao Lingyan shook his head: "Not yet. When I have a baby and want to get married, I will be the first to tell my mother and concubine. I want to decide my own marriage and will not marry a girl from the Weiguo Palace. You don't want that marriage.

Let’s not mention it again.”

"Okay, mother understands what you mean. Don't worry, I will talk to your grandfather and the others." Cen Guifei said.

After thinking about it, she added: "You should know how your brother treats you. He is just like my mother, and he will never be willing to force you."

Xiao Lingyan nodded.

When he came back from the border, he felt Xiao Lingpu's heartache, gratitude, guilt and desire to make amends.

The original owner grew up following Xiao Lingpu like a little follower. Xiao Lingpu really loved his younger brother, and he felt this too. Otherwise, he would not have been able to run to the border, let alone fight for his brother.

Seize the throne for Xiao Lingpu.

If he doesn't want to get involved in this whirlpool, he can avoid these political struggles and save his own life like Zhao Ruxi did, and he doesn't necessarily have to go up in arms.

After leaving the palace, he returned to his Prince Qi's Mansion. Sitting there until night, he asked his secret guards who were similar in stature to change his clothes and sit in the room to read and write. He quietly left Qi with a few secret guards.

Wangfu, went to Suipingbofu.

He missed Zhao Ruxi and wanted to see her.

When Zhao Yuanxun and Zhu left, the original nursing home of Suipingbo Mansion only took two with them, but the nursing home selected by Zhao Ruxi from Zhuangzi took eight with them. The current nursing home of Suipingbo Mansion, except

Originally, Zhao Ruxi selected a few people from Zhuangzi to supplement it.

These are all the young men who have grown up in Zhuangzi in the past two years. They are tall and strong. They have been trained by Ma Sheng for a while. They can also do some basic boxing and kicking skills, do some errands and chores, and can deal with ordinary people.

It was enough to protect their master. But they couldn't notice the coming and going of a master like Xiao Lingyan, let alone stop him.

"Your guards here are not good enough." Xiao Lingyan said to Zhao Ruxi as soon as they met.

"As long as the relationship between you and me is not exposed, this is enough to protect the hospital. Besides, aren't there the secret guards you sent to guard it?" Zhao Ruxi looked at him with a half-smile.

Xiao Lingyan coughed lightly: "Aren't you worried about your safety? Although I didn't say it explicitly, I know I can't hide it from you."

The two were talking about how Xiao Lingyan sent guards to secretly protect Zhao Ruxi at the beginning. Later, the relationship between the two was established, and Xiao Lingyan sent guards to act openly and honestly.

"Your Agility Pills and Dali Pills are very effective. Most people can't get close to you. It's not easy to hurt you," he said.

Zhao Ruxi nodded.

She also relied on the secret guards given to her by Xiao Lingyan, plus the bonuses from her Agility Pills and Dali Pills, as well as the fact that she had been practicing the boxing skills given to her by Xiao Lingyan, so she dared to be so bold and only use ordinary people as guards.

As a person who has died once, she still cherishes her life.

"You came here now, do you have something to do?" she asked.

Xiao Lingyan nodded and told him about the marriage arranged by Concubine Cen.

His desire to survive is very strong. If there is such a thing, it is best to explain it clearly as soon as possible. Otherwise, if Zhao Ruxi finds out from other places later, his life will be in danger.

"Qi Xuan, Duke of Wei?" Zhao Ruxi raised an eyebrow.

She doesn't know many noble girls, but Qi Xuan is one. What a coincidence.

"I have made it clear to Concubine Cen." Xiao Lingyan recounted his conversation with Concubine Cen again.

Zhao Ruxi is not a stingy person, so naturally he will not blame Xiao Lingyan for this kind of thing.

She was thinking about another question: "When your second brother becomes the emperor, will he really not be suspicious of you?"

She and Xiao Lingyan are not people who can take time off. There will be no such political struggle in the future. They will definitely reform Jin Dynasty's industry and vigorously develop the imperial examination productivity on the existing basis.

If Xiao Lingpu would still be suspicious of him for doing such a thing, then they might as well leave it alone now. Anyway, Xiao Lingyan's death was over. While Xiao Ge was still in power, Xiao Lingyan arranged an errand with his father to stay away from the capital.

It is possible to withdraw.

This is better than helping Xiao Lingpu to rise to power and being suspected by him.

Xiao Lingyan shook his head: "Probably not, otherwise I would not have chosen to assist him in the first place, but would have chosen to stay away from the capital. But people change. When he sits in that position, it is hard to say whether he will be the same as before.

This is it now.”

He sighed and shook his head: "There is nothing we can do about it. Besides me sitting in that seat, who else can rest assured?"

"As for that..." He pointed to the sky, "He can't succeed even if he is on the throne. As long as the throne is uncertain, the struggle will never stop. It's not as good as the second brother."

Zhao Ruxi nodded.

Xiao Lingyan looked at her: "Do you want me to sit in that position?"

"It's up to you."

Of course Zhao Ruxi doesn't want it. But she has had such a boyfriend for two lifetimes, and she still hopes to spend the rest of her life with him. What should she do? Just pamper her.

"If you want to sit down, I'll support you; if you don't want to sit down, let's take it easy and be careful after your second brother takes over, and nothing will happen. You didn't use gunpowder at the border, didn't you just want to save a hand?"

Both of them are top academics with strong memories. They are not serious readers. They have read all kinds of books and know a lot of messy knowledge. Especially for someone like Xiao Lingyan who likes military channels, she doesn't believe in his brain.
