The emperor found a random tree root and sat side by side with his son under the tree, and the third prince was still eating the orange that his father peeled for him, and it seemed to taste with relish.

Behind standing is a row of "Eagle Tuo Cavalry", on the blue armor is a eagle with wings flying high, the eagle feathers on both shoulders hunting and flying, this is an elite of the emperor's cronies, it can also be regarded as the emperor's "Chu Family Army", in the battle of Chu State, there are not many records about the operation of the Eagle Tuo Cavalry, but the members of this army are one in a hundred, the first emperor of Chu once said: "I supervise the Eagle Tuo Cavalry, all of the world's sharp, or from a hundred people will make up for it." ”

"Go down, all of you. The emperor waved his hand, and the soldiers under the eagle helmet retreated silently outside the Linhuawan.

The white eagle banner slowly spreads in the breeze, and on it is the image of a giant beast with wings spreading.

For the creatures on the coat of arms of the Chu family, it seems that even the historian can not make a conclusion, some people say that the above is a Haidongqing, from the cautious, the wings are spread out nearly nine feet long, the beak claws are as sharp as a sword, and some people say that the above is a food ape carving, it is said that the ancestors of the Chu family once met this fierce giant beast on the border of Yinguo, in the face of the crazy attack of the giant beast, the momentum of the ancestor seems to be at ease, he shot the wing of the giant eagle with a five-foot long giant arrow, and then cut off the head of the eagle with a matching sword, and the appearance of the giant beast was depicted on a white flag。

Perhaps the true identity of the creature on the banner is only known to His Majesty the Emperor, the emperor looked at the skyline under the clouds in the distance, and his fierce gaze seemed a little empty all day, and the third prince noticed his father's loss, put down the orange in his hand and looked at him quietly.

"Son, you get along with your sister well, and your days together are not many. The emperor looked at the three princes on the side, and sighed.

"Is something wrong?" said the prince, wiping the orange juice from the corner of his mouth.

"The country sent a letter of state, hoping to marry your sister to their Royal Highness the Crown Prince, what do you say should be done about this matter?"

Chu Xianzhao's face immediately changed, and his tone began to become cold: "Is His Royal Highness the Prince of the Bottle Kingdom tired?"

I heard that His Royal Highness the Prince, who claimed to be the wolf of the Bottle Country, had a bad temperament, and his favorite game was to watch the wild dogs and the maids fornicate with the lewd deeds, and even invented a cruel punishment called "dog hunting", where the thighs of those servants who made mistakes were cut open with knives, exiled to the mountains, and then released the hounds to hunt them, the hounds naturally became excited when they smelled blood, and went to hunt down the prisoners with their lives, and this end was often to bring back the heads of the prisoners, and there were no corpses.

"I think Liu Kang's family is tired of living. His Majesty, the Emperor of the Yin Kingdom, spoke in a gloomy tone, and his Danfeng eyes became more and more stiff.

"Do you want to teach them a lesson?"

"Now that we have formed a powerful military alliance with the Taru Kingdom, if we reject each other, it may shake our relationship, and my father must weigh the pros and cons. ”

"But if we are so quick to agree to the other side, it is not a political weakness, and the Tarushi are afraid of you, and even if you reject them, they will not dare to start a war. ”

His Royal Highness the Third Prince is slightly inferior to the second princess in military affairs by half a point, as usual, they quickly entered into political discussions, which is inevitably a process of exchanging the feelings of father and son, but in the eyes of outsiders, it is really strange, the eldest princess once said that compared with the eldest prince and the second princess, the third prince seems to be more like the son of His Majesty the Emperor.

"But now that the war is over, we must consolidate this peace, I don't want to leave a gap between the Yin country and the Taru country, and the officials want me to marry your sister to His Royal Highness the prince of the Taru country, and one of them has a sentence that particularly impresses me. ”

"Oh?" In the impression of the third prince, the people who impressed His Majesty the Emperor, except for himself and his brothers and sisters, the rest were his enemies.

He said that Chu Xungui was a princess and was born to marry. The Emperor said with a gritted tone.

"But if you marry Chu Xun to their prince, won't it become a sale of your daughter. The third prince said frankly.

"I know......" The Emperor slowly lowered his head, a hint of tiredness in his voice.

"Does Chu Xun know about this matter?"

"Perhaps, she has always been very well-informed, so don't break it for now, give her a little time to think. ”

Both father and son were silent, the third prince seemed to feel a little embarrassed, touched the bridge of his nose, the remaining orange juice on his fingertips made his nose itch a little, he looked at the white flag fluttering above his head, the giant eagle fell in his eyes, as if falling into the abyss, unable to escape.

"Xiao Zhao, did I tell you how our Chu family ancestor became the emperor?" the emperor asked suddenly.

"Nope. ”

"The emperor is not innate, with the favor of fate, after the baptism of war, finally showing the majesty of the emperor, some through the southern and northern wars, personally established their own prosperous dynasty, and some rely on the achievements of their fathers, from the beginning of the sitting on the chair, until the invaders cut off his head, and our ancestors belong to the latter!" The emperor's voice became more and more high-pitched, and the third prince even felt that his father had changed into another person.

"He was beheaded while sitting on the throne?"

"No, he cut off someone else's head, he's an assassin!" the emperor was not ashamed, and his voice was low.

"I used to sit in this courtyard, listening to your grandfather tell the history of the development of the Yin Kingdom, the ancestor gradually changed from an assassin who seized power to an emperor admired by all people, the ironclad army, the bow and crossbow battalion...... Now I'm older than when your grandfather died. The Emperor smiled self-deprecatingly.

The third prince was silent for a moment: "What the father said, the son doesn't understand it very well, but I know that the father is very hard, the father is very good to his son, and so are my sister and brother." ”

"Giving birth to a few of you may be the only meaningful thing in my life, I have been in power for nearly twenty years, the war is like wildfire, extinguishing here, and another place will continue to ignite, I hope you can be happy, don't be like me......" The third prince knew that the emperor alluded to the story of his own killing of his brother, so he chose not to talk about it.

"Instantaneous, you're a very smart kid, at least smarter than your eldest brother. The emperor stood up, and the third prince hurriedly supported him, but he glared slightly: "I'm tired, not old, and it's not your turn to help." ”

"Yes, yes, yes. The third prince let go of his hand and stood aside with a smile, he knew his father's temper very well, so it was easy to find the most comfortable way to get along with him.

The emperor suddenly pinched the chin of the third prince, and looked at it carefully, the face of the third prince was slightly pale compared with the eldest prince, the third prince was elegant and lean, although he had half of the grassland blood, but the boy on the grassland was as strong as a little yak at his age, and a pair of dark purple eyes made him look a little charming, and at first glance he looked a little like a girl.

Those eyes are exactly the same as Princess Lou Huan's eyes, glowing with amethyst-like light, and there is a prince in the court who said that His Royal Highness the Third Prince has a pair of "deep eyes" Under the gaze of these eyes, people with evil hearts will feel restless, as if they were stung by a scorpion, His Royal Highness the Third Prince generally squints and talks to people, and he doesn't want the other party to feel uncomfortable because of his eyes.

"Who the hell is it like?" the emperor muttered in a voice that Chu Xianzhao couldn't hear.

"Does my father miss my mother?" the third prince was not surprised, and he suddenly laughed when he looked at his father's slightly moist eyes.

The emperor took out a wine bottle with a mud seal from his bosom like a trick, poured the herbal tea on the round platform into the pool, unscrewed the wine bottle and poured a full glass of pale yellow wine, the whole courtyard was filled with the fragrance of osmanthus flowers, handed it to the tip of his nose, closed his eyes and sniffed.

"A line of cinnamon wine into the throat, full of courtyard fragrant. The third prince quipped.

"Let's say these glamorous words to those little palace maids. The emperor put the cup of cinnamon wine in front of the three princes, and the three princes picked up the wine glass and drank it all, sweet and sour, mellow and soft, with the unique fragrance of osmanthus.

"I can guess where this wine comes from. The third prince smiled.

"This kind of wine is everywhere in Jiangyue in autumn!"
