Volume 1 Past Events Chapter 14 Brothers Meet

Xiao Yuanzi pushed the door in, and after entering the door, he fell to the ground and sang loudly: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live." ”

Liu Cheng didn't pay attention to Xiao Yuanzi, but looked at Liu Ning with straight eyes, his imperial brother, and the person he once admired, but now he was wearing a prison robe, standing in front of him, although that face still looked the same as before, resolute and confident, but from the deepest part of those eyes, he could still catch the trace of unwilling to be confused.

And he has ascended the throne as the emperor and ruled Dacheng, and it seems that all this has come effortlessly. Liu Cheng's heart was filled with a complex and incomprehensible emotion.

Seeing that he didn't get a response from the emperor, Xiao Yuanzi, who was kneeling on the ground, looked up slightly at Liu Cheng and Liu Ning, and saw the two standing at each other, looking at each other, completely ignoring the others, and seeing that Liu Ning didn't mean to salute Liu Cheng at all, Xiao Yuanzi couldn't help but drink.

"Bold rebel, don't you kneel down and bow when you see the saint?"

Xiao Yuanzi's shout broke the atmosphere in the room, Liu Cheng glanced at Xiao Yuanzi, and said majestically: "Bold minion, how can you be unreasonable to the imperial brother, slap your mouth, and get out of here." After saying that, he bowed his robe and turned back to sit on the throne.

Hearing Liu Cheng's order, Xiao Yuanzi's heart moved, and he hurriedly fanned his face with both hands, and then said to Liu Ning again, and apologized: "The little one should be damned, the little one is cheap, and I hope the eldest prince will forgive his sins." As he spoke, he trotted outside. It seems that the master will not think about returning the throne to Liu Ning, and his position is finally stable.

No matter what Xiao Yuanzi thought, seeing the scene just now, Liu Ning had mixed feelings in his heart at this time, defeated, he was a complete failure. He tried every means to fight wits and courage with Li Sheng in the court, and finally did not hesitate to take risks, begging his father to let him go out to take charge of the army, although he still lost to Li Sheng in the end, but Liu Ning's heart still did not despair, because he still had hope and could turn the tables around. But when he was taken to Qinglian Temple and saw Liu Cheng in front of him, Liu Ning knew that he had completely lost, not to Li Sheng, but to his imperial brother, to this emperor, who did not have the slightest threat in his opinion. Even if he defeated Li Sheng in the end, he himself changed from the mastermind of all this to a bystander, and even a prisoner now. The fruits of victory will never be their own.

Liu Cheng obviously felt the change in Liu Ning's aura, and the confidence on his face had completely disappeared, replaced by a depressed and disheartened depression.

"Brother Huang, I haven't seen you for many days, I miss my brother very much, and today I came here for my brother to welcome the return of my brother. Liu Cheng took the initiative to speak, breaking the silence in the field.

Liu Ning calmed down for a while, saw Liu Cheng's imperial costume, sighed, stretched out his hand and waved the robe in front of him, and wanted to pay tribute to Liu Cheng.

It's just that before his knees touched the ground, his hands were supported, and Liu Cheng's voice came from his ears.

"Brother Huang doesn't have to be polite, sit down quickly, and talk to my brother about some of the things that have happened in the past year. Liu Cheng helped Liu Ning to sit down in the first place, and he also sat down together, but he did not return to the main seat, which meant that the two were brothers at this time, and there was no distinction between monarchs and ministers.

Feeling the power coming from his wrist, Liu Ning straightened up, and finally spoke: "Thank you to the emperor, sin, how dare the criminal minister be treated so courteously by the emperor." ”

Maybe it was because he hadn't spoken for a long time, or because his mood was difficult to calm down at this time, Liu Ning's voice was so hoarse, like a voice coming from the mouth of a terminally ill old man.

Liu Cheng was surprised and said with concern: "Brother Huang, who are you?" After that, he picked up the teapot in front of him and poured a cup of hot tea into the empty cup.

Seeing Liu Cheng's actions, Liu Ning wanted to stop it, but was interrupted by Liu Cheng waving his hand: "Brother Huang, now you and my brothers, there is no need to do this, in the imperial city before, I went to your house to play, every time you try to take care of me, even when you are busy with affairs, you have never snubbed me, these things, for my brother are in mind, now, there is no need to destroy our brotherhood because of the change of identity." ”

Liu Ning looked at Liu Cheng in front of him in a daze, his every move, word and deed, all full of imperial demeanor, is this really the younger brother who grew up behind him since childhood? Liu Ning gradually fell into memories.

Because his mother did not get a good cultivation after giving birth to herself, she followed her father to fight outside, and finally died of illness on the way. The father and the emperor felt deeply guilty about the queen mother, and they never made a continuation. After Dacheng opened the country, he got along with Liu Cheng's biological mother day and night, and became more and more affectionate, and was finally included in the harem by his father and named a concubine. In the third year of the founding of the People's Republic of China, Liu Cheng was born, and for this younger brother who was five years younger than himself, both his father and himself were very fond of him, and the relationship between the two brothers was very good since childhood, and there was no half-brother barrier at all. Because Liu Cheng has been playful since he was a child, he doesn't remember how many black pots he helped Liu Cheng carry from his father. I don't remember how many times this younger brother told himself that when he became the emperor, he must be named the king of leisure, so that he could travel the world to his heart's content.

Too many memories came flooding up, gradually wetting Liu Ning's eyes.

"Come, Brother Huang, take a sip of tea and moisten your throat. Liu Cheng handed the teacup to Liu Ning. Putting his thoughts back, Liu Ning turned out the tea and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty." ”

With that, he picked up the teacup and drank it all in one gulp.

The slightly astringent taste is mixed with a faint fragrance, which is also the same as the temperament shown by Liu Cheng, and the strong brotherly love is mixed with a faint coercion from the emperor.

"In the past year, the imperial brother has suffered outside, you don't know, this year, my brother has been worried about the safety of the imperial brother, after all, it is not as good as the imperial city in the military camp, where there may be a crisis at any time. Liu Cheng said with a concerned face.

"Emperor Lao is bothered, the guilty minister... ”

Before Liu Ning could finish speaking, Liu Cheng interrupted: "Brother Huang, do you and my brother have to make such a fuss? What is the crime of Brother Huang? Could it be that if Li Sheng says that you are a traitor, you are really a traitor? Who is going to be a traitor? Will Brother Huang hurt me, or will Brother Huang betray the whole of Dacheng? This is complete nonsense. Brother Huang, let's take a good look, after tonight, the name of this traitor is Li Sheng's. If the imperial brother is still not at ease, after tonight, he will announce the world for his brother and hold a Zen throne ceremony!"
