The Central Plains Chapter 47 Righteous Knot Jin Lan
In the early morning of the next day, Li Mang returned to his residence in the palace, saying that he was going to move outside the palace, but he didn't think that the emperor and the eldest princess would run at both ends, and they were delayed until now.
Shi Peng returned to his sect yesterday and has not returned, only Bai Qiu has just woken up, and he is gesturing in the small courtyard outside the palace, when he saw Li Mang coming in, he joked: "Why didn't you return overnight and stay at the eldest princess?"
"Don't talk nonsense, you come in, I have something to tell you" Li Mang responded with a smile, and then didn't stay, and walked straight to his room, Bai Qiu was confused, so he had to follow.
The two sat around the table, Li Mang poured himself a cup of tea and said slowly: "Brother Bai Qiu, I have always kept in mind what you told me last time, but the overall situation was important at that time, so I didn't respond, I talked with the emperor all night last night, and I had some thoughts in my heart, I will talk about it, you listen, and then tell me your opinion."
Bai Qiu nodded suspiciously, as if waiting for the following, Li Mang took a sip of tea and continued: "My original intention was to borrow the emperor's hand to destroy the Dawu royal family and avenge you, and he meant to help him lead the army to attack Dawu and directly destroy the country, I am very entangled now, I don't know what to do."
Bai Qiu was stunned for a moment, and then his face was happy, but he seemed to think of something again, his face immediately darkened, and he said: "Brother, thank you for your kindness, if it is... If you are embarrassed, you will not care anymore."
Li Mang was very puzzled, in the past, if Bai Qiu heard this, he must have been very happy, but what happened today, he only said that he was thinking about himself, and then he said: "Between brothers, I won't talk about that, I just want to hear what you mean now."
Bai Qiu was moved, thought about it and asked, "How did the specific emperor arrange it, for example, if you agree or disagree, what are the results?"
"Agreed, I will lead an army alone, and I will not go south in the future, if I don't agree, I will leave on my own, but there is no bad result" Li Mang said truthfully.
Bai Qiu nodded and said: "Since it's not coercion, then I don't have anything to say, in fact, I have thought a lot about it since last time, and I have thought about it for a long time from your point of view, if you don't want to bear the infamy of the world, I will come, you retreat behind the scenes and push me to the front of others."
Li Mang waved his hand and said: "Needless to say, do you still want to take revenge, if you want to take revenge, we can only rely on Daxing, what I want to hear is your opinion."
"This..."Bai Qiu stopped talking, sighed and said: "Your brother is not in vain, no matter what happens in the future, I... Ay... So be it, if you agree, I am grateful to Dade, and I am willing to be your pawn, and if I will avenge you in the future, I will be with you forever, and if you do not agree, I have nothing to say."
Li Mang was about to say that he was not sincere, and at the same time as he was sloppy, a voice came from outside the door, interrupting the two.
"What do you agree, tell me Lao Shi, haha" The person who came in was Shi Canopy.
Li Mang glanced at Bai Qiu and said, "They are all brothers, there is nothing that can't be said, you can tell him."
Bai Qiu nodded, then pulled the stone tent and sat down, before slowly speaking, telling the stone tent about his identity, past, and everything.
"Brother, I didn't expect you to be the crown prince?" Shi Peng said in surprise after hearing this.
"That's all in the past, now I don't have any identity, I just want revenge in my heart," Bai said in a hateful voice.
Shi Peng didn't speak, patted him on the shoulder, and then seemed to think of something and looked at Li Mang and asked, "What you just said is related to Brother Bai Qiu?"
"Exactly, the emperor asked me to help him defeat Dawu, so that he could also avenge the great revenge of his brother, but... I'm still a little entangled, you have to know that together with the war, it is always the lowest ordinary people who suffer," Li Mang nodded and replied.
"No matter what, count me as a stone canopy, a mountain of swords and a sea of fire, my brows will not be wrinkled, the day Brother Bai Qiu covered me and left, I recognized you as a brother in my heart" Shi Canopy got up and patted his chest.
His sect is inextricably linked to Daxing, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a person of Daxing, whether he fights Dawu or not is no different from him, Bai Qiu is naturally happy to see Dawu destroyed, and the only uncomfortable entanglement is Li Mang.
Li Mang listened to Shi Peng's words, and his heart was also a little touched, and he sighed as if talking to himself: "Hey, find yourself guilty, what do you want to do so much, do whatever you want..."
Then he raised his head and said to the two: "Brother Bai Qiu, I will go to the emperor in a while, and promise him that when the time comes, I will lead the army, and you two will be my deputy general, and we will do him vigorously, okay?
Bai Qiu got up suddenly, so excited that he choked up: "Brother... Good brother... Thank you, from now on, my life is yours."
Shi Peng also got up, put the two of them on the shoulders and said: "Oh, is this the Li Mang brother I know, just be neat, do whatever you want, or else, how about we swear goodbye?
Li Mang glanced at the two of them, laughed, and said briskly: "Why not, I have long regarded you two as my brothers."
Bai Qiu also nodded and said: "I am not as bold and hearty as the two of you, just because I have a thousand knots in my heart, now it's okay, the brothers are willing to take revenge on me, I have no scruples, I am willing to give you two brothers."
Shi Peng laughed, hugged the two and said, "Go, sacrifice to heaven and earth, let's drink him for a day."
Then the three of them came to the small courtyard outside the hall, knelt down towards the east, gathered soil into incense, raised their heads to the sky and said: "Respect the sky, tell the earth, today I Shicang got acquainted with Li Mang, Bai Qiu brothers, live up to this life, willing to be brothers of the opposite sex with both of them, in the future, we will share blessings and woes, if there is a violation, when the arrow pierces the heart and dies."
Li Mang also swore loudly: "Respect the heavens, under the earth, I Li Mang can get acquainted with Shi Canopy, Bai Qiu brothers, it should be the luck of my life, today I am willing to marry the two of them as brothers of the opposite sex, share the blessings and hardships, if there is a violation, let me die again, can not be resurrected."
Shi Peng and Bai Qiu looked at Li Mang in surprise, and they were all stunned by his strange oath, but fortunately, this is not the time to delve into it, Bai Qiu also said loudly: "Respect the sky, under the earth, my Bai Qiu is willing to be a brother of the opposite sex with Shi Peng and Li Mang, and then I don't want to be born in the same year, the same month, and the same day, but I want to die in the same year, the same month, and the same day, if I am ungrateful, let me be destroyed by heaven and earth."
After Bai Qiu's words, the three of them respectfully kowtowed, which was the official worship of the three of them, and then the stone tent pulled up the two of them: "I am twenty-six this year, what about the two brothers?"
Bai Qiu opened his mouth and said, "Little brother twenty-four."
Li Mang touched his head embarrassedly and said: "Little brother really doesn't know how old he is, count it as twenty", Li Mang was twenty years old in his previous life, he dropped out of school at the age of fifteen or sixteen, mixed in society for a few years, and crossed into this world just after turning twenty.
"Okay, haha, then I'll be the eldest brother, Bai Qiu's second brother, Li Mang's eldest brother, haha" Shi Peng looked up to the sky and laughed, as if he was very happy.
"I've seen big brother" Bai Qiu and Li Mang both hugged their fists at the same time, and they spoke at the same time.
"Have you seen the second brother?" Li Mang looked at Bai Qiu and shouted, but why was that expression so strange?
Bai Qiu looked puzzled, and was about to ask, but saw that it was Shi Canopy who interrupted: "Let's go, wouldn't it be sorry for heaven and earth if you don't drink today, you must not get drunk and not return."
Li Mang and Bai Qiu looked at each other and smiled bitterly, and could only let him pull him out of the courtyard.
"Uh..."
Before the three of them went out, they saw the eldest princess of Fenghua coming, and she had been standing at the door for a long time, and she thought that she had seen the scene just now.
"What's the matter, the three sons are going out?" a calm voice sounded from her mouth.
Shi Peng and Bai Qiu glanced at each other, pushed Li Mang forward, and did not speak, Li Mang staggered, dusted off the soil on his trouser leg and said shyly: "Forehead... Why are you here?"
Fenghua saw him so stupid, he laughed out loud, but fortunately he covered his mouth with his long sleeves in time, so that he didn't lose his temper, and then said, "What's the matter?
Seeing that the three of them were embarrassed, Fenghua no longer laughed, so he said: "Drinking, what do you have to do when you go out of the palace, I will arrange it for you, just drink here."
"Cui'er, inform the imperial dining room and let them get some good wine and food," Fenghua instructed directly to the personal palace maid behind him.
"Yes," the little maid hurriedly ran away.
"This..."Shi Peng and Bai Qiu stared widely, only Li Mang smiled bitterly, and Fenghua covered his mouth again and snickered.
