Why is this happening?

This starts with the origins of Shangguan Chen and Chen Qi.

Both of them have a kind father above and a brother whom they admire very much. The only difference is that Chen Qi's family may be happier and more complete.

Therefore, the two boys who grew up under this kind of protection were raised to have a innocent heart.

Those who are close to the vermilion are red, while those who are close to the ink are black. Both of them have the same temperament, so it is not strange to have a good relationship like this.

After getting along in the past few years, Shangguan Chen has completely regarded Chen Qi as his true friend, and the two of them will say a lot on weekdays.

Chen Qi even talked about the past events that happened in his home, so Shangguan Chen knew the details so well.

But he understood, but Chen Qi never told Shangguan Chen. At that time, his mother and sister found out who the man who had a private relationship with An Qinru was. I thought he must have been ordered by his family and knew the severity of the matter, so he didn't speak up easily.

But Shangguan Chen must find a way and try to make him open his mouth and tell the truth.

Shangguan Chen, who received the entrusted by Su Muwan, wanted to start with Chen Qi first, and wait until he confirmed this person, and then he could find the evidence.

However, such a thing is probably not a small thing that can be easily said for Chen Qi, so Shangguan Chen began to plan carefully in his mind.

Finally, after he made up his mind, he reached out and lifted the curtain of the carriage and ordered to the groom outside.

"If you don't go back to the palace, let's go to Chen's mansion first!"

The groom nodded, pulled the reins tightly, slowing the horse's speed a little, then changed direction and drove towards what Shangguan Chen said.

After arriving there, the guards at the door saw Shangguan Chen walking down from the carriage, and naturally recognized him. One of them hurriedly walked in and informed the master.

"The Thirteenth Prince, why do you have time to come to find our second son in person today? Let's hurry up and go into the house!"

The housekeeper of the Chen family who rushed over to hear the news welcomed Shangguan Chen with a flattering smile on his face, not daring to be negligent at all.

This is a real prince, and even his master respects him, let alone a small servant, he is naturally as honest as he is.

"What are your second young master doing in the mansion these days? I have been detained in the palace by the emperor recently. I have never had the chance to leave the palace and have never heard of him."

Shangguan Chen followed the housekeeper into the courtyard while quietly inquiring about Chen Qi's recent situation.

"Report to the Thirteenth Prince, the second prince was also dragged by the eldest prince to study in the mansion these days, and he hasn't even come out for several days."

The butler said carefully.

"What? Reading! Hahahaha, is the eldest son in your house starting to force him to end this year again?"

"I don't know what your second young master will be tortured again?"

After hearing this, Shangguan Chen not only felt sorry for Chen Qi, but started to laugh loudly. The laughter was so cheerful that the butler asked him not to pretend that he hadn't heard it, or he laughed twice.

It’s not that Shangguan Chen is like this. He really knows Chen Qi’s level in his heart, but he is the kind of person who is dissatisfied with a bottle of water and half a bottle of water begins to fall.

After all, God may be really unfair. He gave all his talent in studying among the three siblings and gave Chen Shu all the time.

So even if Chen Qi works hard on weekdays, he has not made any progress in his studies and has mediocre performance.

In the past, teachers who accompanied Shangguan Chen and Chen Qi to accompany him to class also shook their heads when they saw him and said bluntly that he should not do his best to study because it was too difficult.

Not everyone can have a way out after studying.

This road to imperial examinations is like a pyramid with a large population at the bottom. When you move up, you start to eliminate people. The smaller the number of people, the more fierce the competition will be.

But even so, every year, there are countless students in the Dazhou Dynasty who have become famous for ten years, thinking that they will be the second "Chen Shu" and the second "Su Mubo", and resolutely move towards the examination room.

Some even become more and more courageous as they fail, and they will come back again when they fail. When they reach middle age, they still have the dream of the imperial examination.

Chen Shu walked out by himself and became a role model for poor students in the world, so he wanted his younger brother to win glory for the Chen family like himself. Shangguan Chen understood this idea.

It’s just that Chen Qi is suffering. He is forced by his relatives to do things he is not good at. Because he cannot refuse, he must be very embarrassed.

After hearing his words, the housekeeper didn't know how to answer. He couldn't say such words like Shangguan Chen, although he felt that it was indeed the same.

It wasn't enough that Shangguan Chen said that it would be nothing to let others hear it, but if the housekeeper dared to say it, it would be too offending the master of the mansion, so he could only laugh twice.

At this time, Shangguan Chen had been led by him to the hall of the Chen Mansion, and Chen Shu and the Chen family's parents who heard the news were already standing at the door waiting to greet him.

"The Thirteenth Prince, there are some misfortune and some misfortune and some misfortune and I wonder why I suddenly remembered to come to the humble house today?"

When Chen Shu saw Shangguan Chen, he waved his hand and apologized. He seemed very serious.

"Mr. Chen doesn't have to do this. Today I am just passing by your mansion and making a decision to meet Chen Qi and tell him some gossip."

While helping Chen Shu up, Shangguan Chen made up an excuse and threw it to him.

Anyway, he has been here with this excuse many times in the past, so when he spoke, his expression was very calm, making people see no flaws at all.

"Oh, it turns out that the Thirteenth Prince is here for his younger brother. Come and go to the Second Young Master's yard, release him first, and tell him that the Thirteenth Prince is here to find him."

Chen Shu thought about it in his mind and ordered his servants to say.

But even if Chen Qi was coming, he would have to wait for a while. So with the humility of Chen's parents, Shangguan Chen sat down on the seat and waited.

"Weichen heard that in recent times, the thirteenth prince has been reviewing memorials with the emperor in the imperial study room. I think the prince has worked very hard for a while, and I have lost my face when I see it."

Seeing that the atmosphere was still harmonious, Chen Shu couldn't help but say what he said in his mind for a while.

Chen Shu, who is now a third-rank official, naturally joined some of the gangs in the court. The person behind him is Taishi Zhou, the father of the current queen.

If you choose Tai Shi Zhou, you will naturally default to the later battle of the throne. Chen Shu chose Shangguan Ling.

A few days ago, because the emperor took Shangguan Chen to review memorials every day, this unusual behavior could be said to have touched the hearts of Shangguan Qian and Shangguan Ling's faction.

When he was in charge of his position and chose Shangguan Ling, he naturally had to find a way to hold him to the throne, so Chen Shu cared very much about these things.

Now I want to use the relationship between my younger brother and Shangguan Chen to create more useful information from him.

But Shangguan Chen was not stupid, so there was no reason why Chen Shu couldn't understand his intention, so he simply pretended to be stupid and answered as if he didn't understand his intention.

"It's better for Lord Chen to observe carefully. These days are really too tiring, but being able to do something for the father is considered to have gained some gains."

After hearing this, Chen Shu's face changed and he turned pale.

He began to think about how to speak so that Shangguan Chen could understand that he was not praising him, but wanted to know what the emperor had done recently.

Before he could come up with something, another person suddenly ran into the room.

"The Thirteenth Prince, it's really you. I thought it was my brother and my parents who had plotted to deceive me. I didn't expect it was you!"

The person who came was Chen Qi who was locked up by Chen Shu and "study hard". As soon as he entered the house, he was attracted by Shangguan Chen's figure and ran to him and shouted.

Shangguan Chen rubbed his ears while looking for Chen Qi who hadn't seen for a long time.

What surprised him was that Chen Qi, who had been studying hard behind closed doors, not only did he not lose weight, but he also had some flesh on his face.

Just think about it and know that he must not be busy studying hard!

Shangguan Chen smiled meaningfully and looked at Chen Qi and explained.

"Yes, my princess has just returned to the palace today. In order to come to welcome her, my father gave me a day's holiday. After meeting her just now, I planned to return to the palace, but I didn't expect to pass by your house and just wanted to come and see you."

"How is it? Is it still a good life recently?"

Hearing his question, Chen Qi subconsciously wanted to shake his head and talk about his recent dissatisfaction, but when he thought of his brothers and parents around him, he still took back what he said and changed his words before he could speak out.

"It's pretty good, I'm just reading all the time."

After saying that, he quickly greeted his brother and parents, looking very complimentary.

Shangguan Chen didn't want everyone to keep talking about these trivial and irrelevant things, so he simply spoke up and said his intentions.

"Brother Chen, I'm here today. Actually, I want to find Chen Qi and me to have a meal. I wonder what you think?"

Shangguan Chen knew that if he asked questions at Chen's house, it would be very difficult if he wanted to make some talk from Chen Qi, so it would be just right to go outside.

After hearing this, Chen Qi's eyes lit up, and then he looked at his brother and parents with anticipation, with a kind of yearning and desire in his eyes.

Chen Shu thought about it, and finally nodded, and explained to the two of them with a very gentle voice.
