Chapter I
Beijing, Ye family
"I disagree!" Dressed in a robe made of precious silk, a beautiful young man wearing a crown of jewels and jade crested his neck and shouted, "The whole family is here, I'm not going anywhere!" β
"Changsheng, don't make trouble." The man who had been silent in the chair finally spoke, his military uniform, even if he was drinking tea in his own study, he could not hide the murderous aura of his body, but when he spoke to his little brother, his tone was unusually gentle.
The young man who still wanted to say something looked at the eldest brother with a resolute and unchangeable expression, and shouted without giving up: "Big brother! β
"Alas......" The second brother of the Ye family, who had been persuading his younger brother for a long time, sighed, and his handsome and elegant face was full of helplessness: "Changsheng, I'm afraid you have to listen to the eldest brother this time." β
Ye Changsheng's eyes immediately turned red when he heard this, and his very beautiful face was full of grievances: "But, but I don't want to be separated from my father, mother, and brothers and sisters, why do you want to drive me away, am I not the Ye family?" β
Father Ye looked at his little son, who had always been pampered, with an expression of wanting to cry, and he couldn't bear it. This is his old man, the most beautiful, the most squeamish and the youngest child, who doesn't like it in the whole family, he has always been like a jewel of pain and pet, and he is afraid of turning into a hand for fear of falling. When he thought of sending people so far away and out of sight, he couldn't bear it.
However, the current situation does not allow him to think too much, the holy body is not as good as day by day, but the court is becoming more and more chaotic day by day, the people of the three princes have begun to do things openly and secretly, and the prestige of the prince is getting weaker and weaker.
And he is the crown prince and prime minister, and his eldest son Qinglan is the general of Zhenbei who is the imperial seal, with great achievements in heavy troops, and he is stationed outside the pass all the year round. The second son has just been a waiter in the Ministry of Officials for a short time, and he has been the prince's companion since he was a child, and the eldest daughter has become the princess, and the family has to get on the prince's boat, becoming a grasshopper on a rope, and sharing glory and disgrace in the same boat through thick and thin. It's just that fortunately, the prince is lenient and benevolent, and he is the choice of the emperor, and their family doesn't have to feel that they are not trusted.
However, the saint became more and more confused, and the older he was, he blindly favored the three princes, and sent the power and wealth to other people's mothers and sons. Everyone in the court knows who these three princes are, they are insidious, vicious and scheming, as long as they can achieve their goals, they can use almost any means, and they are definitely not candidates for the prince.
The crown prince has also been sad and worried recently, and the entire court is in a situation of calm and turbulent darkness on the surface, and no one knows who will win in the end.
The Ye family actually knows in their hearts that once the third prince gains power, with his vicious temperament, the first thing to clean up is the Ye family in the capital, the loyal Tai, Zi, and Party.
Prime Minister Ye and his two sons have often sat in the study all day recently, and they can't make a very good grasp of the current situation in total, so in order to save a little hope, they have to grit their teeth and send the baby bump out of the house.
What they planned was that if the crown prince won in the end, they would bring them back to reunite with their families, if so......
If the three princes win, their Ye family will lose money, but Changsheng must survive. Whenever the three princes stared at their little brother, the kind of gaze like a frog on the top of a poisonous tongue and the strange feelings contained in it were really unsettling, and if Changsheng was in his hands, he would definitely not have a good life.
"Changsheng, listen to your eldest brother and second brother, and also listen to your father's words, and leave early tomorrow morning. I've already claimed that you're sick and won't see you, and I'll pick you up when we're stable. Prime Minister Ye Cheng persuaded earnestly.
"Liar." Ye Changsheng's beautiful and delicate face was full of disbelief, he had been protected too well since he was a child, he didn't know much about things outside, and he didn't know what was going on outside, let alone what the court conspiracy was. He's not very smart, but that doesn't mean he doesn't have the most basic observational skills.
The current atmosphere at home can be described as sabre-rattling, trembling and frightened, the carriage at the door is constantly coming and going, with a solemn expression to sit in the study at home for a long time is my father, brother and colleagues, as the crown princess, occasionally go back to her mother's house to visit her sister with a sad face, and constantly sigh The prince's brother-in-law whose face is getting worse day by day.
All the qiΔ indicates that there is going to be something big in the family.
He once overheard the muttering of his subordinates, saying that the world was going to change greatly and the emperor was going to change hands, but he didn't know whether the crown prince or the third prince was sitting in the seat of the son of heaven. If his prince and brother-in-law become emperors, then their family can still continue to be prosperous and rich, and if the third prince loses, then the first one in their family will be beheaded.
Copying ......
Ye Changsheng touched the head on his neck, and listened to the text of the play, which is to cut off the head when the whole door is beheaded, and the person who cuts off the head will die. He was afraid of being beheaded all over the house, and he was even more worried about the death of his father and brother.
"If I don't go, I won't go!" Ye Changsheng saw that even his father was persuading him to leave, and he was even more sad: "I am also a member of the Ye family, you are all coaxing me!" I've heard that if my brother-in-law doesn't become emperor, our whole family will be beheaded! I'm not going anywhere, and I'm going to die with my father and mother when I die! β
He said aggressively, "My surname is Ye, and I am the fifth young master of the Ye family!" It's hard for you to deny it, this is something that everyone in the capital knows! β
"Poof." The second young master of the Ye family couldn't hold back, he couldn't hold back when he saw the other party's puffing face and big eyes like red rabbits, "Yes, yes, you are the fifth young master of the Ye family, who dares not to admit that our family is omnipotent Ye Wu?" The doting in his tone could overflow, "But Xiao Wu, if you don't go now, you can't go, otherwise we won't have a way to live." β
"Why?" Ye Changsheng was stunned for a moment, and looked at his second brother suspiciously.
Ye Qingliu put away the smile on his face and said sternly: "Actually, the emperor is not really confused, he has long known the ambitions of the three princes and the wolf sons, but he is hateful and has long been full of wings and difficult to eradicate for a while, so the emperor has to pretend to be confused, in fact, he has secretly prepared an edict for the prince to succeed to the throne." β
Hearing the second brother's words, Ye Changsheng's eyes widened, "Then why don't you take out the edict?" In this way, the three princes can't do bad things! β
Ye Qingliu sighed, "Things are not so simple, the emperor is not in good health, and the power of the crown prince has not yet reached the point where he can completely suppress the three princes and one party, so this edict must not be let them know." β
"Therefore, this edict was sent by the emperor to a secret place among the people to hide, and when he really died, he immediately ordered someone to pick it up and inform the world, so that the three princes could not say anything."
Ye Changsheng didn't quite understand the twists and turns in this, and when he heard this, his heart lifted: "Is this really useful?" Who will get this edict then? β
Ye Qinglan also understood the meaning of his second brother at this time, and immediately cooperated with the use of a bluffing low voice to make nonsense: "This candidate can naturally only be you." β
"Me?!" Ye Changsheng looked at his eldest brother in surprise, "Why, why me?" β
"Because you're the right person." Ye Qingliu took out his technique of fooling people in the court and his eldest brother sang and harmonized, and cooperated seamlessly: "Think about it, there are so many people in the court, it is impossible for anyone to go to the rivers and lakes to find this thing, because their goal is too big." Once it is known by the people of the Three Princes, it must be a dead word. But if you send an escort, who would dare to send someone to send someone to something so important? β
"Our Ye family is deeply trusted by the emperor and the prince, and this important task has been handed over to our family, neither I nor my father and eldest brother can take it at this time, of course, only our little five can do this."
Ye Qingliu patted his little brother on the shoulder, with a dignified face and first-class acting skills: "So Changsheng, the hope of our whole family's life, and the future fate of the whole world are all handed over to you." β
"You are not going to run for your life, but to do great things, you sue the second brother, sue the sΓΉ father, do you have the confidence to complete this task?"
Being smashed by such an important task was almost untenable, and Ye Changsheng was stunned. He opened his mouth, looked at his father, and then looked at his eldest brother, who was expressionless, but his eyes were full of ardent expectations, and he didn't know what to say for a while, and he didn't doubt the words of his eldest brother and second brother at all.
In the past, he has always been protected by the whole family, this is not allowed to be pampered, he has no chance to do anything big, and now he suddenly has such a heavy task, he is a little weak-hearted, but more of a spontaneous sense of mission, he also wants to protect his family, protect the people he likes.
"IβI'm going to get it done!" He worked hard to straighten his small chest proudly, his eyes were full of determination, and he looked confident.
Seeing his younger brother's innocent appearance so easy to deceive, Second Brother Ye touched his head lovingly and sympathetically, and sighed a few words psychologically.
The younger brother is so innocent and cute, and being an older brother is really happy and troublesome. Such a few loopholes and lies can be fooled, and if you are convinced, you can still do it with enthusiasm, what should you do if you leave the Ye Mansion and go to the people, will you be sold and count the money with a smile.
Ye Changsheng didn't know his brother's troubles at all, he had just learned the direction of his future life, and his mind was full of his desire to do his best to get this edict, to live up to the hopes of the whole family, to live up to the trust of the emperor, and not to live up to the lives of the whole world.
The whole family breathed a sigh of relief and glanced at each other, the old fox in the court, the rumored tiger and wolf generals and a little fox all wondered, how did such a shrewd family raise such a pure and good rabbit as Xiao Wu?
After urging Ye Xiaowu, who was full of confidence, to go to his room to clean up his things, a helpless look appeared on Brother Ye's cold face: "Little Wu, this kid ...... Who's stupid like? β
When Second Brother Ye heard this, he couldn't help but look at his father; The old fox came into contact with his sight and slapped the table fiercely: "Evil animal! Look what your dad is doing! β
The little fox Second Brother Ye, who has been a "evil animal" hundreds of times, touched his nose in a gloomy manner, "I'm really not worried about Xiao Wu going out, our Xiao Wu looks so good-looking, in case it ......"
