Mind reading, the emperor saw my fist hard

Chapter 254: Preparation for Testing

After seeing off Princess Lingyue and Li Kening, Xu Jinyu pounced on Wei An, who was particularly quiet tonight.

"How is it? How is it? Is there any plot power? Are you silent tonight because you are fighting against the plot? In your eyes, is Princess Lingyue shining, like the heroine in the center of the stage, striking your heart."

Wei An rolled his eyes at Xu Jinyu and pushed away Xu Jinyu's face that was leaning towards him: "Why are there so many messy things!"

"That's what the novels say." Xu Jinyu said confidently.

Wei An lowered his head and thought for a while before saying, "Without so many supernatural things, do you think there will still be a heroine with a golden finger?"

"How is it impossible? Hasn't one already appeared?"

Wei An shook his head and said seriously: "I have carefully observed this Princess Lingyue. Princess Lingyue looks like an ordinary princess. She even needs to listen to the instructions of the maid behind her before she speaks a lot."

"And I don't have any special feelings for this Princess Lingyue. I don't know if it's because of a different soul or something else. How about we try again tomorrow?"

Xu Jinyu blinked in confusion: "Try? How do you try?"

Wei An raised a cold smile at the corner of his mouth: "You forgot that my brother is the affectionate male second. Let's see if my brother will fall in love with Princess Lingyue at first sight."

Wei An's smile made Xu Jinyu shudder and feel something was wrong all over.

"Snapped!"

He slapped Wei An on the head.

"Look at you! Don't laugh like that. You really look like an ultimate villain when you laugh."

After being slapped by Xu Jinyu, Wei An's cold smile disappeared completely, leaving only the silly smile of a college student.

"It's much more comfortable this way."

This time Xu Jinyu felt comfortable, but...

Xu Jinyu rubbed his chin.

"Now that the plot has moved forward, isn't your brother's age a little insufficient for the affectionate second male lead?"

“Ah… this…”

Wei An also fell into deep thought.

Wei Songhe, the affectionate male second, was exactly sixteen years old three years later, which was the prime of youth in ancient times, full of vigor and vitality. With the blessing of the halo of being the son of Marquis Pingyang, he was one of the best young men in the capital.

Now, I wonder if he is in the mood to fall in love with a foreign princess at first sight or at second sight.

The problem is that a few days ago, Wei An received news from his cheap uncle that Wei Songhe has now begun to introduce the situation in the capital to some scholars who come to the capital in order to make a living.

Although Wei Songhe's current status is neither high nor low, he was once the reserve prince of Pingyang Marquis and received the education of a prince, so he is well aware of the situation in the capital.

So he is living a good life and is even dating a girl from an official family, probably planning for his marriage.

Thinking of this, Wei An looked up and said to Xu Jinyu: "Don't worry about this. The ancients matured early. As long as there is an opportunity to contact a foreign princess, Wei Songhe will definitely cling to her."

"Because there is no hope for him in this life in Daqian."

"Okay, let's find a chance for Wei Songhe to get in touch with Princess Lingyue."

After Li Kening returned home from Princess Tai'an's mansion, he was limp and saw a lot of people gathered in front of his house. He was so scared that he rushed into the crowd and shouted the names of his wife and children.

"Yingying! Qiao'er!"

"Why!'

Li Kening's wife and daughter agreed very happily.

After agreeing, he immediately turned around and talked happily with his neighbors.

"How can the inner guards be so fierce and aggressive? Look, they demolished my old house and gave me silver. Look! It's 200 taels of silver. We can build a new house now, and we have to build a brick and tile structure."

The neighbors' eyes almost sparkled when they saw their wives holding the silver, but they still agreed with them.

"Yes, yes, there are so many rumors in the capital, saying that the people in the inner guard are not good people. Look, the people in the inner guard are just polite and even give silver."

Li Kening looked at his own house that had disappeared from its original location. Not even a piece of wood was left in the house, and there was a pit nearly ten feet deep dug under the house. He couldn't help but sigh: "The internal guards really dug three feet deep into the ground."

"The inheritance left by our ancestors is gone this time. What is this silly woman happy about with 200 taels of silver?"

After sighing, Li Kening finally reacted, and then his scalp tightened. The inner guards had been to their house, so they knew everything recorded by their ancestors, which meant that His Majesty also knew it now.

Li Kening squatted down in pain and grabbed his hair. Could he save his head? Was it too late to resign now?

Please spare my life, Your Majesty, considering that I am trying to help Your Majesty to get information.

"Lord Li." A cold voice came.

Li Kening jumped up in shock. When he saw that it was the internal guard, his legs went limp: "This internal guard, the ones in my house are all......"

The inner guard's voice was cold, but his words were not so cold: "Your Majesty said that you don't care about the good things in your house. After all, they were recorded by your ancestors. Your Majesty can't dig up the graves of deceased officials."

Li Kening's sweat started pouring down his forehead after hearing these words.

When Li Kening's wife saw her husband's look, she wanted to come over worriedly, but was stopped by Li Kening.

"Your Majesty has also instructed that if anything bad is spread outside, His Majesty will hold you responsible."

"I swear..."

To show his loyalty, Li Kening raised his hand and swore.
