414 Tricks
In the majestic palace of the red-tiled and white-walled house, the prince Qian'er was writing in front of the bookcase, the young man was tall, the silk shirt was light, and his face was more and more delicate, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, holding a tube of wolf hair in his hand, dipped in the thick ink with the fragrance and writing slowly on the paper. On the case, a nephrite paperweight is placed in front of you, and the paperweight is carved and beautiful.
A young man tiptoed his hands and feet, probing his head and looking at the palace gate.
"Kun'er, is that you, why don't you come in?" Qian'er didn't look back, and when he heard the footsteps, he knew that he was a naughty royal brother.
Kun'er didn't hide, she entered the door with a smile, she was attracted by the paperweight on the table at a glance, stretched her neck to look, her eyes were full of love, "Brother Huang, use it to press paper, isn't it smooth to write?"
Qian'er smiled, and simply handed the brush over: "Come, you try to write, see if it's so exaggerated." β
Kun'er pinched the pen and really wrote a few words, his words were naturally much worse than his brother, he suddenly felt defeated, put down the pen, and sighed: "Why don't I make progress, the more I write, the more ugly this word becomes." β
Qian'er saw that her brother was sad, so she quickly grabbed the paperweight and handed it over, Kun'er was suddenly happy, holding the paperweight to watch and play carefully, and her little face showed infinite love.
Kun'er licked her lips and muttered praise: "It's so beautiful, there are still such beautiful things in the world." This jade is really a rare good thing in the world. β
Qian'er was moved by her younger brother's expression, but she could only shake her head: "It's a pity that it was rewarded by my father, so I don't dare to give it away easily, otherwise I can give it to my younger brother." β
Kun'er waved her hand: "I don't dare to take love, I think it's a blessing as long as I can see the imperial brother here every day." β
Qian'er smiled, "Then you come every day, as long as you finish your homework, you can come over, and it's also fun for us to play and enjoy together." β
The two brothers said this, and Kun'er went back happily.
Kun'er's footsteps stepped lightly into the threshold of Qingyun Palace, Duanyi Niangniang saw him from afar, smiled and waved her hand: "Kun'er, why didn't you come over after school, where did you go naughty? Why are you so happy today? Could it be that the teacher praised you?"
Kun'er ran over, knelt on the ground to greet Duanyi Niangniang, stood up after please, and plunged directly into the arms of this aunt.
"I went to play with Emperor Qian'er. One thing I was happy to tell my mother that the imperial brother of Qian'er promised me to go to his palace every day to see the nephrite paperweight, and the paperweight was beautiful, and the gold was expensive, and it was rewarded by my father to the imperial brother. β
Duanyi's originally smiling face slowly showed a dark cloud, and suddenly grabbed Kun'er's arm and asked him to stand upright in front of him, "Who told you to go to his palace."
Even if he has something 10,000 times more expensive than nephrite paperweight gold, don't be hot-eyed! Unless it's ......."
"Unless it's something, why can't I go to the palace of the royal brother? The imperial brother is very good to me. Kun'er rolled her black and white eyes and stared at the end
Yi Niangniang asked. He was too young to understand the minds of adults.
Duanyi's flour was cold, "Do you know why your father gave him nephrite paperweights instead of you?
Kun'er still didn't open her mind, and her immature eyes showed doubts, "There is only one imperial brother - besides, there is only one nephrite paperweight, and the father can't give one to each of our princes, and isn't the imperial brother older than us, the young and the young are orderly, so naturally he should be rewarded first!"
"Unproductive goods!" Duanyi pouted angrily and twisted Kun'er's arm hard.
Kun'er was taken aback and hurriedly retreated, but her aunt grabbed his arm and didn't lose it, and her aunt's good-looking Danfeng eyes were close to Kun'er, staring straight at Kun'er, as if she wanted to see Kun'er's heart and soul all the time.
Kun'er was stunned, he always remembered that his aunt was the most gentle and charming woman, why did she suddenly become so vicious?
Duanyi tried her best to suppress her anger, trying her best to soften her voice, she leaned close to Kun'er's ear, "Kun'er, do you know how your mother-in-law, that is, Duanfeng Niangniang, who originally lived in this Qingyun Palace, died?"
"Mother, how did she die? Didn't you keep telling me that she died of illness?" Kun'er was immediately excited and anxious when she heard that her mother, a child who had no mother since she was a child, grew up alone in this huge palace, fortunately with her aunt to take care of, she felt less lonely.
"In the past, you were young, and you shouldn't have known this, but now that you have grown up, my aunt will tell you the truth. Your mother was killed by a woman. β
Kun'er's eyes widened, there was surprise and hatred in his eyes, he grabbed Duanyi's arm, and his little arm instantly burst out with the power of hatred, pinching Duanyi's pain.
"Auntie, tell me who this bad woman is, and I must kill her to avenge my mother!"
"She's dead. β
Kun'er is stupid, the enemy is dead, so who will he seek revenge?
In the limited life cognition of a teenager, if a person's relatives are dead, the living person must avenge him (her), but when the enemy is also dead, he is at a loss.
Duanyi's good-looking face was distorted by an ugly emotion, her eyes flickered, and her red lips activated: "But her son is still aliveβ"
"It is only natural that the father and the son repay the debt. Who is her son, and where is it? Even if it is heaven and earth, I will find him, and I will avenge my mother!" Kun'er almost shouted, her small fist clenched into a ball and raised high into the air.
The palace maid who was waiting at the door hurriedly closed the half-closed palace door from the outside.
Kun'er didn't know how dangerous her shouting was just now.
He was just gripped by hatred.
"He is the one you keep claiming to be the emperor's brother, because you are still your sister's flesh and blood born of ten years of hard work, your own mother was killed for many years and has not been able to take revenge, but the son and the enemy's son are affectionately together. Hmph, such a son - you must know that your mother put her life into it in order to protect you in infancy, if she hadn't exchanged her life, you would have been killed by that bad woman a long time ago. β
Kun'er was instantly stupid, looking at the woman in front of him blankly, this news was too big, too heavy, too terrifying, he was a little difficult to accept for a while - all these years they have been under the teaching of the teacher, learning the principles of father's filial piety, brother's friend and brother's gong, Kong Rong pear, heaven and earth's prince's teacher, being friendly with others, etc., he respects the imperial brother everywhere, and the imperial brother seems to be very good to their younger brothers, especially very good to himself, as long as they are together, they talk and laugh, and never blush. Now suddenly tell him that the royal brother, who always smiled gently, actually had a vendetta against himself for killing his mother, and if he wanted to take revenge, he could only find him, this, this...... It's incredible.
Duanyi coughed, "This is the truth." How many times have you pestered me to ask the so-called truth when you were a child, I am afraid that you can't pretend to be too young to do anything, once you know the truth, you can't help but say it, and then you yourself will be in danger, now that you have grown up, you also have the ability to distinguish right from wrong, how should you get along with that hypocritical prince in the future, you can watch it yourself. β
Kun'er was still a little difficult to accept, and suddenly had doubts: "Didn't the imperial brother be born to the queen, why did he become another bad woman?"
Duanyi shook his head: "This stupid boy has grown so big in the palace and doesn't know anything." These are all palace secrets, and ordinary people don't know about them at all. The queen had no parent, and after the bad woman died, she adopted Qian'er. You don't even know about it. So don't talk nonsense when you go out. Beware of getting your head killed. β
Kun'er still found it difficult to accept, his mind became a mess of porridge, and a voice told him that he should rush out immediately to take revenge, find a knife and stab the imperial brother in the chest, and kill him.
But there is always a rational force in the depths of his body that is dragging him, reminding him that he can't be in a hurry, can't be reckless, and can't be dizzy.
In order to defuse the shock caused by this moment of knowing the truth in his heart, he tried to bypass the essence of the problem and explain himself elsewhere, "Auntie, isn't it just a nephrite paperweight that caused this incident, then I will go and ask my father to give me one too." I heard from the chamberlain that someone had just presented a large bag of nephrite to my father. β
Duanyi smiled bitterly: "You kid, you really don't know what to do." Is it just a paperweight? Do you see the shape on the paperweight, it's a dragon? What the dragon represents, even the most ordinary and lowly people know, I don't believe that you, the prince who grew up in the palace, will not know! Your father can give him such a thing alone, which shows that your father has long decided in his heart that he will choose him as the crown prince and the heir to the unification of our Dongliang Kingdom in the future. β
Kun'er's little face slowly changed color. Even if he is still young and simple, but the words crown prince and Datong, he has known what it means since he was a child, and he has been constantly instilled with a view by the eunuchs and palace maids who serve him and Duanyi Niangniang, you are the prince, and your only way out is to fight for that position and become a high-ranking person. If you let others fight for it, you will end up in a very miserable situation.
It turns out that his father is so eccentric, and it turns out that this person who may be the crown prince is the son of his own mother and enemy, so can he still hesitate?
It was as uncomfortable as several knives in his heart, and his little heart was really difficult to dissolve and straighten out so many cruel things for a while.
He turned around, and without saying goodbye, he crossed the threshold and walked out of Qingyun Palace.
Behind him, a personal palace maid approached Duan Yi Niangniang, "Niangniang, he won't be stupid, after all, such a statement is too cruel." He's still a kid. β
Duanyi sneered and shook his head, "If you don't take strong medicine, it has no effect." This kid's brain is too solid, and the words we have taught him since he was a child are useless if you see that he can listen to them all these years. This time, I can only come up with the most ruthless trick. β
