950 is unpredictable
The eldest prince and his party did not stand long at the gate of the city when they saw dust rising in the distance, and soon the military flag of the royal guard appeared in front of everyone. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
That's right, the 100,000 horses that the emperor gave to the three princes before were the royal guards, and they were the most loyal to the emperor, and naturally they were also loyal to the three princes, so the eldest prince would not rob or rob, so he obediently handed over power.
In the face of an eccentric father, robbing is the most useless method.
Soon the military flag was getting closer and closer, and everyone also saw the three princes sitting in front, high-spirited and high-spirited, looking at the three princes who were surrounded by a group of attendants, it would be a lie to say that the eldest prince and others were not sour, but ......
What about acidity?
They have an eccentric father, and they have to endure it no matter how sour they are, and they have to laugh no matter how unhappy they are.
This is the heavenly family, they have not climbed to the highest position, they all have to live by people's faces.
In the distance, the third prince and his party stopped, the dust gradually went out, the third prince got out of the carriage and walked over with his personal guards, the second prince and others immediately laughed, and greeted them with a group of civil and military ministers.
"Second Emperor Brother, it's hard for you to come out and pick me up." The third prince has always been a gentle and polite person, so he stepped forward quickly from afar and lowered his posture first, but although he lowered his low posture, he still didn't look at the eldest prince in his eyes.
"Fourth brother, fifth brother, sixth brother, seventh brother, thank you for your hard work, and all the adults, how can you bother the adults to welcome you." The full name of the three princes is Xuanyuan Wei, the name taken by the emperor himself.
"Your Highness is polite, Your Highness has made meritorious efforts to suppress bandits, and you deserve to be greeted by us." The momentum of the three princes is in full swing, and if you don't do this kind of thing at this time, how long will you stay?
"The third brother has made a great contribution, how can he not come as a younger brother." The fourth prince and the fifth prince should be the one who laughs and does not smile, the seventh prince stands aside and is silent, the eldest prince is still ignored by everyone, and the sixth prince continues to maintain his cold posture and does not approach everyone.
The third prince glanced at it, then walked in front of the seventh prince, reached out and touched the head of the seventh prince, and said with pity: "Seventh brother, what's wrong?" Not happy that the third brother is back? ”
These words can be described as heart-wrenching, the seventh prince was stunned, resisted the urge to slap the third prince's hand, and said with a forced smile: "What did the third brother say, how could the younger brother not welcome it, seeing that the third brother was fine, the younger brother was so happy." "I'm glad I can take revenge myself!
"It's good that the seventh brother is happy, the third brother still thinks that the seventh brother is angry that the third brother didn't send you in person that day, you can't complain about the third brother, the third brother was busy at the time." The third prince looked like a good brother, but the seventh prince was aggrieved but didn't dare to say anything, so he could only show an innocent smile: "I don't blame the third brother, I'm very happy that the third brother can come back safely." ”
Say? What can he say?
The third prince looks like a generous and good brother, and if he wants not to give the third prince face in public, that is, he is unreasonable and has no princely demeanor.
"I'm relieved that the seventh brother said this, the third brother came back this time and brought you a lot of gadgets, and I will send them to the palace in a while." After the three princes showed their love for their brothers in front of the courtiers, they continued to greet the courtiers.
The Seventh Prince secretly breathed a sigh of relief, quietly turned his head to look at the eldest prince, and saw the eldest prince looking at him worriedly, and the Seventh Prince showed a shallow smile.
Not every elder brother is like the third brother, and that's enough.
The three princes returned victoriously today, except for the bandits who did not catch alive, everything was very successful, and after a period of greetings, the three princes asked people to carry two million taels of gold to show their success.
Everything went very smoothly, but just as the greeting ceremony was over and I was about to return to the palace, an accident happened!
Out of nowhere, a bunch of people appeared, pushing two large carts into the city, and before they reached the gate of the city, they were stopped by the guards brought by the third prince......
The "booming ......" flashed the blind gold bricks, pouring down from the board car, dazzling everyone's eyes in an instant.
"My gold bricks, my gold bricks, this is the gold bricks that the grass people dedicated to the emperor, quickly, pick it up, don't be robbed."
"My gold bricks, my gold bricks, no one is allowed to rob, no one is allowed to rob, this is my gold bricks. It is a gold brick to be dedicated to the emperor. ”
"Gold bricks, a lot of gold bricks."
……
Seeing the gold bricks scattered all over the place, the guards who blocked them were shocked, they had just seen the three princes offering two million taels of gold, but it was far away, far less shocking than these gold bricks falling in front of them.
"What's going on?"
How could it not attract attention when there was such a big commotion, let alone that all of this was arranged by the second, fourth and fifth princes.
The second prince and his entourage immediately stopped, pointed to the front of the trouble, and asked people to go and inquire.
You don't have to get closer, you can also see the glittering light of the gold bricks, which makes people happy at the same time, but also deeply uneasy, such as the three princes.
The third prince knew very well where he got these gold bricks, in order to fulfill his plan, in order to add merit to him, his grandfather's family almost emptied the family funds, so that he could use them for meritorious service.
His gold bricks were not those given to the bandits by the prince at all, but he himself ordered someone to build them privately, and now a batch of gold bricks suddenly appeared, and he couldn't think about it.
The third prince looked at the eldest prince for the first time, but saw that the eldest prince looked calm, as if he didn't know anything, while the fourth prince and the fifth prince looked at him with a sneering face.
In an instant, the third prince understood what was going on, and his hands and feet were cold, and his eyes were dizzy.
It's a game, and he falls into a game done by someone else.
"Fourth brother, fifth brother, what's the ......" The third prince opened his mouth to ask, but before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by the person who came to report: "Your Highness, there are a few fishermen in front, they said that they picked up a boatload of gold bricks on the seaside, which is enough for two million taels, and they dare not swallow it privately, so they want to send it to the imperial capital and present it to the emperor." ”
"Two million taels of gold bricks? Bring it along and have a look. "The third prince just wanted to just make a mess of the people and drive people away, but he let the second prince take the lead.
Although the three princes were worried, they didn't dare to say much, for fear of showing too much and making people suspicious, but none of the people present were stupid, if it was just a gold brick, no one would think much about it, but the person who reported it especially emphasized that one sentence was "two million taels of gold bricks." ”
The number of two million taels can never be a coincidence, there are not so many coincidences in this world.
In an instant, the officials surrounding the three princes, as if they had made an appointment, tacitly took a step back.
Meritorious service is a good thing, but if this merit is fake, it will be the crime of bullying the king, and no matter how frank the emperor is, the three princes will have no way out.
A prince who is unscrupulous and greedy for merit can't afford the heavy responsibility of the prince......
