Chapter 198

Zhu Xiang smiled helplessly, the corners of his mouth hooked a desolate arc, and said sadly: "Father, I'm afraid it's difficult to change, but this time I also asked for it, I rushed to hit it, who can stop it?" In fact, I don't complain about anyone, but the queen mother has placed so much hope on me, but I have disappointed her again and again. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Actually, I envy you a little, if she can be by my side, it is worth it for me to do this, but there is no me in her eyes at all, everything I do is just self-inflicted and in vain. ”

A few puzzlements flashed on Zhu Zhao's face, and he wondered: "Second brother has always told me everything, why do I feel so impressed?" Could it be that I forgot? Whose girl is it? Why don't I go with her? ”

A touch of embarrassment flashed on Zhu Xiang's face, and he hesitated for a while and laughed self-deprecatingly: "I'm ashamed, how dare I tell you?" If you knew about the person I was looking at, I was afraid that you would be surprised. I'm also full of you, it's the sunny rain next to your wife, I saw her twice when you and Qian Yun had a good day, and I liked her very much, I wanted her to stay by my side and wait, who knows...... She turned her head and married your guard Hengsheng, Xu really responded to the sentence What you can't get is the best, no matter how many times I tell myself, it's hard to let go, and I don't know what to do. I thought I would forget it after a long time, but who knew that I would let myself do such a thing. ”

Zhu Zhao was stunned for a while, and paused for a long time before sighing: "This is really ...... Although Hengsheng is the person who follows me, I have never regarded him as a person, you are all my closest people, who knows......"

Zhu Xiang hurriedly waved his hand, held his forehead and said with a wry smile: "This has nothing to do with you, don't take it to heart, there is only love in this world and can't say any reason, I came to you because I don't know who to talk to in my heart, in fact, in the end, you are the only one who has been by my side for so many years to be a good brother, unlike other people who must be laughing at me in their hearts at this time, thinking that I should have no fate with that position, I met the third brother today, you didn't see his smug look." In fact, what is there to be proud of? Even if I don't have a chance in the future, I won't cheapen him, and I will do everything I can to send you up, so that those who have ill intentions will all prostrate at our feet and beg for mercy in the future. ”

Zhu Zhao only felt strange to such a ruthless second brother, but he sighed with emotion, this is the true face of their brothers, no one is a good person, and when they encounter something, everyone's true colors are revealed at this moment, even the closest people are surprised, people like them are good at hiding.

"People like us can't even find a person who can tell the truth, it's really worse than ordinary people, if it's a big fake lady, it's much easier to do, you see sometimes these things are really laughable, but a lowly person is so hard to get. Let's not talk about it, let's have a good drink, let's get drunk today, get a good night's sleep, and forget all these things tomorrow, people can only get everything they want to use when they stand on a high place. ”

Zhu Zhao hesitated for a moment and said, "Does the second brother really plan to marry Lord Li's daughter?" ”

"Why not? If you make a mistake, you have to bear it, but as for how to treat her, I can't say well, I always feel that there is something greasy in this matter, why can a good person only find me? If it's really accidental, I'll admit it, if someone wants to harm me, then don't blame me for being rude, no matter who is who, if I find out, even if I try my best, I will let him taste the price of his way. ”

A faint smile appeared on Zhu Zhao's face, and he was not scared by his cruel words, after all, he crawled out of the pile of dead people, and his courage was not frightened, even if he was a bad person, he could face this person with peace of mind, in fact, thanks to these things he had encountered over the years, so that he grew up quickly, and he was no longer the one who wanted to escape.

He asked the palace people to move over a few jars of good wine that he had saved, and looked up to see the fifth brother who was in a daze not far away, and the smile on the corner of his mouth was even greater: "The fifth brother has suffered a lot in the cold palace, if he has been treated well, in fact, he has a better life than anyone else, I used to tell him that if we can, we will escape from here far away, go to a place where no one knows us to live, marry a simple woman, and live without worrying, but who knows that the next day, he will become like this." I really thought it was terrible at that time, we didn't hurt anyone, in the eyes of which royal brother we weren't the most useless people? It's a pity that those people won't let us go because we are soft, isn't the fifth brother killed like this? If he came to his senses, he would definitely be resentful, I didn't help him, let alone protect him, he was still so young that year, he must have only fear in his heart, and the only person he could trust was me. If I had known, I should have kept him with me, all ......"

Zhu Xu's eyes drooped, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a touch of curvature, it turned out that he still remembered himself in his heart? He thought that he had become a person with no sense of existence in this place, so he was content, and the feeling of emptiness in his heart was filled in an instant, and it was worth it to hear the person he cared about the most say such things before leaving.

Zhu Zhao didn't know that the fifth brother could understand what he meant, let alone that Zhu Xu's eyes became red, and they were even full of water. The palace people quickly moved the wine over, for fear of hurting their bodies, so he specially prepared a few side dishes, and he greeted the fifth brother with a smile and said, "The fifth brother also came over to eat with chopsticks?" You shouldn't be able to drink, so it's better not to touch this kind of thing. ”

Zhu Xu actually wanted to sit down and have a drink with him, but he had a secret hidden in his body, and he couldn't let himself not tell others that the secret was exposed, who knows if those who wanted to harm him would hear that he would become sober before killing him? He couldn't put himself back in a difficult situation because of his selfishness, and the bitter taste of the past was enough for once.

Zhu Zhao's face was full of softness, this kind of expression would only be revealed when facing Qian Yun, Zhu Xiang glanced at it and smiled: "The fifth brother is as important as your wife, I sometimes really envy the relationship between you and the fifth brother, no matter how many years have passed, I should be glad that I didn't bully you like them at that time." In the palace, we seem to be brothers, but we live more lonely than anyone else, we can't talk casually, we can't eat indiscriminately, and even what we want to do is still so opposed by voices, if we want to resist, we may face a complete loss. I won't hide it from you, the queen mother already knew about the existence of Qingyu, and she had to get rid of her several times, it was I who promised to change my life to be a good person, but who knows, until now, it was still ruined by myself. ”

Zhu Zhao sighed, picked up the wine jar and poured wine into his wine glass, and said comfortingly: "These are all things that can't be changed, the second brother still has to think about it, don't talk about these things in your heart, it's not good for you." Even if you think about it every day, what should have happened has happened, and I think that those who are targeting you at this time can stop for the time being, after all, the father has made arrangements, and they dare to question and bite it, isn't it impossible to get along with the father? I think they are all smart people, and no one dares to think about their father's head. ”

Zhu Xiang smiled self-deprecatingly: "What you said is right, I can live a few days of relaxation now, no longer have to tremble and fear that others will grab my feet, people are always tense and easy to get tired, indulge it today, and think about it well in the future, how to move back to this game." ”

Zhu Zhao didn't say a word, he looked up at the fifth brother, but saw that there was no one in that direction. He didn't know why, since the fifth brother came out of the cold palace, he had become estranged from them, it was hard to hear a word, people were really helpless, he shook his head and smiled, the fifth brother had suffered such a big crime, he couldn't force him anymore.

The two brothers drank until the second half of the night, and then they fell asleep sleepily, and they all slept on the table with their heads resting on their arms, and the servants who were waiting outside for summons also fell asleep accidentally, so they let the two masters sleep there like this. When I woke up, I felt that something had gone wrong, but who put on the clothes on the two highnesses? If you can do this, why can't you wake people up to bed? I hope I won't be found to be lazy, the more I think about it, the more scared I feel, and I have a cold sweat on my head, until the next day when someone is still looking for him trouble, I am relieved, and I don't know who it is, at such a good moment, I don't seize the opportunity to toss myself, he really met the Bodhisattva apparition, met a good person, this is a great blessing for him, if he has a chance to get out of the palace next time, he must go to burn incense and worship the Buddha.

If she is not found in the middle of the night, only Cen Lian will do this, she did it only because of the orders of the five princes, she knows that the five princes value this sixth highness who rescued him in their hearts, in fact, she is also very grateful in her heart, if it weren't for him, the two of them really don't know how sad their lives would be, so as soon as the five princes said it, she came out with a thick blanket and covered them without saying a word. Although the palace is as warm as spring, it is unbearable to sleep like this at night, and it is really a crime if you accidentally get sick.

And Zhu Zhao just felt a figure in a hazy way in front of his eyes, and he didn't see who the real person was, but he forgot about it in a blink of an eye, and the whole person felt sleepy and couldn't stand it, and slept until the next morning when the eunuch was outside anxiously shouting that he should get up and go to court, and then he endured a headache and got up, and he didn't wake up after cleaning up.

The eunuchs on the side all said: "Your Highness looks very haggard, if the emperor sees it, I am afraid that he will have to suffer for a while, how can this be good?" You are a great hero, and you should be praised in the court, if you are counted, those who want to see your jokes will only make a big fuss about your mistakes. ”

Zhu Zhao walked to the table to eat breakfast, and said with a smile: "Even if they come, I'm not afraid of them, what about the second brother?" ”

Before the words fell, the door was pushed open, and I saw the second brother rubbing his head and coming in, sighing helplessly: "I patronized and drank yesterday, and I forgot that I have to meet the saint today, I have already been beaten back anyway, and I am not afraid that my father is reprimanding, but you should have been rewarded for the scenery, follow me, I am afraid that I will also suffer, I am really sorry for you, this wine is really strong, I just want to lie on the bed and rest well." ”

Although Zhu Zhao was also very uncomfortable, he couldn't help but laugh when he heard his words: "Yesterday, the eunuch was a fool, I didn't even notice that the jar of wine he reported to us was the strongest, it's nothing, the brothers just talked about their hearts in private, and the father didn't have anything to say." ”

Zhu Xiang sat down and ate two bites of something at random, and the burning pain in his abdomen was less, and it didn't take long for the time to arrive, and the outfits of the two of them were served by the closest person in front of them, so they looked a little pale and couldn't wake up, they were all people from Zhilan Yushu, and they looked even more tall and noble when they wore luxurious clothes on their bodies, and they looked very pleasing to the eye.

Sure enough, the two of them entered the hall with their front and back feet, and they were seen by the sharp-eyed third prince, he has always had a bad mouth, even if he said those bastards in front of the emperor, people wanted to slap him to death. The two of them can stand still, and his words chased after him, and there was a bit of schadenfreude, the ministers were used to seeing it, but they just hung their heads and didn't dare to say anything, they couldn't wait to go underground, after all, this is the emperor's own family affair, let them look at it as courtiers, and they can't tell how unhappy they are. They have to be people with their tails between their legs, and if they are caught in the wrong place, they really want to cry without tears.

"Look, what did you two do last night? These two look like they've seen ghosts, why do they smell like wine? Could it be that you drank all night? It's better to pay attention, if you hurt your body, it's not good, and then the queen and the concubine don't know how to feel distressed. In fact, I envy the second brother and the sixth brother, the relationship between the two can be so close. It's just that the sixth brother is still young, and I, the elder brother, still can't help but want to mention it, you follow the second brother to pick up a good school, what the second brother did two days ago really surprised me, you have to have a long brain, don't hurt the good image that you have finally erected in front of your father because of a moment of refreshment. ”

Zhu Zhao looked faint and didn't bother to pay attention to him, such a mad dog-like person would only reduce his net worth, why bother? I can't wait quietly for my father's reprimand, Heng Zhi is going to suffer this number of falls, if you think of a way to refute, I'm afraid it will make my father even more disgusted. It's just that he thinks clearly, but it doesn't mean that the second brother, who has been frustrated again and again in the past two days, can hold on.

Zhu Xiang was already very angry, an inexplicable woman relied on herself, and her mother and the family behind her were suffering from undue hardships because of their recklessness, but now all this sadness gave a merciless joke to a bystander, and it was difficult for anyone to swallow this evil breath, so he said in a deep voice: "You and I are brothers, why is it so gloating?" Third brother, don't be busy and be happy yet, have you forgotten that you also have a lot of things to do? It's just that I'm not like you as an elder brother, I heard that many of your subordinates are vying to leave you, I remember a gentleman who even praised his father, what kind of wise person heard that he was ambushed on the road or the killer of the third brother, you do this is really chilling, I want to follow you for so long, no merit and hard work, you behave like this, who else will dare to do things under your hands in the future? There are some things that others don't say, just to give you this face and not make you too ugly, but the third brother still doesn't understand this truth, which really makes me, an elder brother, feel embarrassed. The sixth brother played with me when he was a child, isn't the relationship between the two of us enviable? I'm a few years older than him, and I can't let him come to me as a scholar for the wrong things I did, even if I'm out of luck, the sixth brother is now a pillar of the imperial court, and we still expect him to protect the family and defend the country in the future? If the third brother is not convinced, you might as well try to lead the troops to kill the enemy, and see if you yourself are so capable? I admit it myself, I can't compare to the sixth brother. ”

The third prince snorted coldly, and wanted to say something, but was interrupted by the voice of the emperor who sat down, his face was serious, and he clearly didn't like his sons not doing their jobs, not to mention kindness and friendship, intrigue all day long, they couldn't hold up any breath, and they didn't know where they got their confidence to feel suitable to be the emperor of the world. If they are really allowed to succeed, I am afraid that the old Zhu family's country will inevitably be lost, but what Zhu Xiang said is to the point, which makes him happy: "The civil and military officials are all looking at you, and you two will quarrel with me here?" Don't feel ashamed? Two unseemly bastards, when you're a shrew in the market? I'll bypass you for the time being, if I see that there will be a next time, see how I clean you up? ”

Tianwei can't be offended, since the emperor has already spoken, the two have to stop, glared at each other fiercely, and said respectfully: "The son is not filial, ask the father and the emperor for forgiveness." ”

The emperor pursed his lips and continued: "The second and sixth children are too ignorant, everything should be controlled, why are they so nonsense?" Look at the two of you in the morning, it's like you've been staying up all night, what is it like? If the war drums are beating thunder outside, I see if you can still be so chic. It's all for me to rein in, and I won't hold you accountable for this matter for the time being. And Tingwen, yesterday I ordered someone to send you to speak, you might as well run away without a figure, you are idle outside, I don't care about you, you have to look like a prince in the palace, right? The young lady I found for you already felt wronged, and you are so unmotivated, even these nephews of yours are better than you, how long do you have to take care of you? ”

Zhu Tingwen originally thought that he would be quieter, and he would not be troubled if he didn't follow these few small openings, and he was secretly glad that this retribution was coming, if he had known, he wouldn't have picked out to see the painting girl yesterday, who knew that he was proud outside, and he would have to suffer when he came back, so many people looked at him and had to smile and say: "The emperor forgives the sin, the younger brother just hasn't returned to the capital for a long time, and he is very worried about those snacks in the capital, so he didn't hold back and went out for a while...... Besides, it's a good thing that the nephews are diligent, young people have courage, and it's best to be able to share the emperor's worries. Brother you don't have to worry about it, for so many years just to read a document has a headache for several days, I really can't stand these things, if you change it to a book, the brother can read it without eating or drinking for a day, ask the emperor to see it. ”

Einiang would not know that the old prince in the court would be such a tune, whoever saw him felt that he was a living treasure, so that people could quickly look at the mood can get better, in the past, no matter how angry the emperor was, he always got better under his words, but unfortunately the prince who has no power wants to come and stammer, and even his nephews secretly look down on him.

The emperor was laughed at by him, and immediately said coldly: "I see that you are going back more and more, you follow these little cubs to make trouble, can't you make any trouble?" No, if you swim around like this again, I will not be comfortable, so I will find you a light errand, and the ministers who will be in the yamen with him in the future will keep a good eye on him, if he runs away that day, he will report back directly and see how I clean him up. ”

Zhu Tingwen's face suddenly became scornful, seeing that he was not as comfortable as these nephews, he said with a bitter face: "Your Excellency, what are you doing with all this effort?" Brother find you a rope, you tie me up, where you go I will go with you, can't you run around? ”

The emperor really couldn't help it at this moment, the seriousness on his face suddenly became clear like a dark cloud, and he pointed at Zhu Tingwen and scolded with a smile: "Okay, you Zhu Tingwen, our old Zhu family has produced such a living treasure of you over the years, I will tell you today, don't fight any ghost ideas, there is no such possibility, see the heavens to me on a good errand, others do their duty and reward, if you do something that does not meet my mind, you will be punished directly." If your courtiers report your mistakes, you will be punished in the same way. ”

Zhu Tingwen asked helplessly: "What is the punishment?" ”

"Punish you, let you not wait for the effort to go out and waste time, and give me a good errand, I don't believe that I can't cure you."

Zhu Tingwen saw that he was afraid that he really had no hope, and said weakly: "The emperor can leave a few for his ministers, and the ministers are still counting on these daughters-in-law to marry their daughters-in-law, as well as my lords, for the sake of this king who has never offended you in the past, please let this king go, I am really grateful." ”

Zhu Zhao couldn't help but lean his mouth, and whispered beside him: "If I see you like this, my jaw will fall off in shock, you, we are all up and down, it is really difficult to find such a person like you." ”
