  Chapter 264 Brings out the best in each other (second update)

  Su Xing also wanted to know more about Nan Chu, even if Su Rong refused to let him go, he didn't want to be completely ignorant. Although Xie Yuan collected a lot of files from Southern Chu in his study, he found that none of the files that Zhou Gu asked for from the crown prince were complete.

  So, he followed Zhou Gu to look through it.

  For a while, neither of them spoke, and there was only the sound of flipping books in the room.

  Unconsciously, it was noon, and Su Xing naturally stayed in Zhou Gu's yard for lunch. After lunch, Su Xing planned to stay for another half a day. He had read a small part of the files about the Nangong family and hadn’t finished them. Naturally, he couldn’t take them back to read, lest Su Rong find out. He just picked up the files and wanted to continue reading. A personal guard reported to Zhou Gu, saying, “After Ye Er came out of the palace, he was intercepted by the eldest prince Yan Li in a restaurant in the street. After a short stay, he came out one after another. government."

  Zhou Gu raised his eyes and looked at the guard, "Why did Yan Li return to Xue's place at night?"

  The personal guards shook their heads, "The first prince's guards and the second son Ye's secret guards guarded the restaurant, and his subordinates failed to find out. However, when the second master Ye left the restaurant, the clouds were calm, and the first prince left the restaurant expressionless."

   Zhou Gu thoughtfully, waved to the guard, who retreated.

  Su Xing was also thinking, these days he lived in the capital, although he didn't participate in the affairs of the court, but every day when Shen Xian returned home, he would talk to him about the affairs of the morning court. Although Xie Yuan has a great talent, but he stayed away from the capital for a long time, and his teaching to Su Xingze about the court was relatively weak. Shen Xian loved and cherished his talents, and because of Xie Yuan's relationship, he valued Su Xingze, so he naturally took on this matter. Judging from many recent events in the early dynasty, it is obvious that the eldest prince Yan Li and the second prince Yan Lin have formed an alliance in secret, intending to work together to deal with the crown prince, instead of working independently in the past.

  The pressure on the prince suddenly increased, but as Su Rong disrupted the situation in Beijing and China, it was strange that the pressure on the prince had been on the prince for many years, and the pressure from the emperor had been reduced. Especially in the past few days, the situation in the early court has obviously changed quietly. His Majesty's control over the prince is gradually loosening, and he no longer deliberately criticizes the officials of the Eastern Palace faction. It is obvious that his majesty is more kind to the prince than before.

   As a result, the First Prince's faction and the Second Prince's faction suddenly became nervous, especially the First Prince, who was beaten by His Majesty not long ago.

  The eldest prince has been obviously impetuous in recent days.

   Su Xingze knew what Su Xingze knew, and Zhou Gu knew it even more. The Duke Huguo's Mansion has a certain sensitivity to control the court situation for many years. His Majesty's silent change is a good thing for the East Palace, and it is also a good thing for the Duke Huguo Mansion.

  He turned his head to look at Su Xingze, "Brother Su, go home, and come back tomorrow to read these files with me."

   Naturally, Su Xing couldn't stay any longer. He only met Ye Guixue that day at Duke Cheng's mansion, but because there were so many people around Ye Guixue, he didn't say a word. Although countless people praised his character, Su Rong was also very satisfied with him after returning from the Great Buddha Temple, but he didn't really contact him.

  Now is your chance!

  Su Xing put down the file without saying a word and stood up, nodded to Zhou Gu, "Then I'm leaving, come back tomorrow."

   Zhou Gu nodded.

  Su Xing left the Palace of the Protector.

   After Su Xingze left, Zhou Gu clutched the dossier in his hand, his face darkened. Ye Guixue can enter and leave Shen's mansion openly, but he can't, and what Ye Guixue can do with her, he can't do. The clearer you are in your heart, the more uncontrollably uncomfortable you will be.

  He put down the file, lay down, and buried his face in the quilt.

  Su Xing returned to Shen's mansion very quickly. When he saw the carriage parked at the entrance of Shen's mansion, he knew that Ye Guixue hadn't left yet. He asked the housekeeper, and after learning that Su Xingze had paid a visit to Mrs. Shen, he went to the courtyard where Su Rong lived, and went directly to look for it.

  When he arrived at Su Rong's yard, he saw those two people standing at the table, one was rubbing ink while talking, and the other was writing something with a pen. The one who speaks and rubs the ink is Su Rong, and the one who writes is Ye Guixue.

  The two were not close, but not too far apart. The door of the main room was ajar, and the curtain was blown by the wind. It could be seen that the two of them complemented each other very well.

  Su Xing stopped in his tracks. A moment earlier, he had told Zhou Gu that he also supported his decision, but now that he saw Su Rong and Ye Guixue, he was not sure, because the two looked like a perfect match now.

  He was a little hesitant, not knowing whether he should go in and disturb them, but when he saw that the two people inside had looked up at the door, Su Rong naturally asked him, "Brother, what are you doing standing outside the door? Why don't you come in?"

  Su Xing could only walk into the main room.

  Ye Guixue put down the pen in her hand, and cupped her hands at Su Xing, "Master Su!"

  Su Xing also bowed his hands, "Second Master Ye!"

  After the two people guarded each other and saw the ceremony, Su Xing looked at the pages of handwriting written on the table.

  Ye Guixue smiled, but did not answer, leaving it to Su Rong to answer.

  Su Rong blinked, "I got a new sword manual and chess manual, and I asked Gui Xue to write them out, so as not to be forgotten by me after a long time."

   Naturally, she would not tell the truth to Su Xingze, nor would she tell him where or how she got this thing, lest he, who is too upright, catch her and give him another lecture.

  Su Xing took another look at Su Rong, knowing that her expression must be hiding something from her, but he didn't delve into it, especially in front of Ye Guixue, he nodded and saw that there was a thick stack of writing on the table, and Ye Guixue showed no reluctance. This is a tiring job, and Su Rong is too lazy to write.

  He could only say to Ye Guixue: "Xiao Qi has been lazy since she was a child, and has not been diligent in practicing pens, so don't get too spoiled with her."

  Ye Guixue smiled and shook her head, "It's fine for such a small matter."

  Seeing what he said, Su Xing could only glance at Su Rong.

  Su Rong smiled, "Brother, you just came. Gui Xue is indeed tired from writing. I can't bear to let him write for too long. Will you write next?"

  Su Xing laughed angrily, "Write it yourself."

   Regardless of his disagreement, Su Rong picked up the pen and stuffed it into his hand, "You write."

  Su Xing stared.

  Su Rong sticks out her tongue and urges him, "Hurry up, finish writing the rest of this before my mouth is dry. Especially the sword manual, Feng Ling is waiting to comprehend it. Only when he comprehends it well can he protect me better."

  Su Xing had no choice but to pick up the pen resignedly, and followed Ye Guixue's handwriting, listening to her dictation and writing.

  Su Xingze's handwriting has been worked hard since he was a child. His handwriting is not inferior to Ye Guixue's. It is self-contained, very strong and beautiful.

  Ye Guixue also praised immediately, "Good word!"

  Su Rong is used to reading Su Xingze's handwriting, so she doesn't think there's anything wrong with it. She doesn't feel embarrassed when she instructs others, and she doesn't push the work of grinding ink to him because Ye Guixue is free. She still grinds ink while dictating.

  Her memory is so good that even Ye Guixue was amazed by it.

  Ye Guixue sat down calmly and made tea for the two of them. With the fragrance of tea overflowing and the smoke curling up, the painting hall had a very peaceful atmosphere in the quiet afternoon.

  Feng Ling poked her head quietly to take a look into the painting hall, then let Su Rong grab her and let him grind the ink.

  Feng Ling was excited, and immediately entered the room, taking over the work at Su Rong's hand, his eyes fell directly on the sword manual written by Su Xingze. Just like a sword idiot.

  Su Rong rested her hands, she knew that Su Xingze had a good memory, and after talking for a long time in one breath, she picked up a teacup to drink tea, and at the same time took the time to whisper to Ye Guixue, "My elder brother loves to manage people the most, so he must not be allowed to go to Nanchu with him."

  Ye Guixue laughed.

  Su Xing gave Su Rong an angry look, and almost threw the pen to her, forcing her to write by herself.
