Liu Tong was not unsurprised by this. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

What kind of person is my father, even if he can't understand ten points, there are always seven or eight points.

Before his father sent him to prison, he asked his father one last question.

"The father knew that the crown prince was immoral and incompetent, but insisted that he succeed to the throne and strive to ensure that he did not lose the position of the crown prince, was it out of love for the former queen and reluctance to the crown prince, or ...... Unwilling to admit that your eldest brother was the most wrong decision you ever made? ”

The expression on his father's face at that time clearly told him that in fact, the real answer was more inclined to the latter.

Father, he is a king who loves face. So he was reluctant to admit his mistakes.

The older you get, the more stubborn you are, and the more you can't let go of your face.

The fifth brother returned to Beijing and forced his father to abolish the crown prince, which was already the biggest compromise his father could make.

How could my father let him out of this seclusion according to the fifth brother's wishes?

Liu Tong smiled slightly, nodded and said, "Okay, I know." ”

King Rui paused: "Xiao Jiu, Fifth Brother is very sorry, there is no way to rescue you for the time being......"

"It's okay fifth brother." Liu Tong shook his head: "I'm doing well here, no silk and bamboo, no case, it's quite easy." ”

Liu Tong said with a smile: "If you let me out at this time, maybe you will take an errand for me to do, and I still can't figure out the errand process, so I can just hide for a while." ”

Rui Wang also smiled and reached out to pour tea for Liu Tong personally.

"I look at what my father meant, and I still feel a little guilty about you. Although he couldn't move and couldn't speak clearly, the look in his eyes still couldn't hide from my eyes. He doesn't want me to be too proud, he doesn't want to follow me too much......"

King Rui sighed lightly: "Xiao Jiu, if you are wronged for a while, I think my father's attitude will soften a lot after that." ”

Liu Tong nodded, he was really not in a hurry.

"After the fifth brother came back, did you see the virtuous concubine and the fifth sister-in-law? Is everyone okay? ”

"It was rumored that I was seriously injured and died in the middle of the road, my mother and your fifth sister-in-law inevitably suffered some blows, and their bodies were a little thinner, and now I know that it is fake news, and when I see such a living person, my body is naturally all right, and there is no big problem." Rui Wang Road.

"And what about my three nephews?"

"They're all very good, Qian'er is eleven or twelve years old, and she is a little man of half age." King Rui said with relief: "I heard that the fake news came back to the capital, my son can still bear it, and it is also thanks to him that your fifth sister-in-law has survived this hurdle." ”

Liu Tong nodded: "That's good." Before I came to Zhongguan Hutong, I had instructed my fourteenth brother to let him go to Ruiwang's Mansion to bring three more nephews if he had nothing to do, but I was still a little worried in my heart, for fear that my nephews would learn from their fourteenth uncle's recklessness. ”

"The fourteenth brother is still a little bit of a score, and he is not out of tune in front of his nephew."

King Rui and Liu Tong gossiped about their relatives and friends, and also rescued the Yao family, and now Yao Chengxi follows him to do things, and he is a military advisor behind the scenes.

Liu Tong nodded: "Zijing, this person sometimes looks out of tune, but his ideas are very novel. The fifth brother listened to him more, and there might be some different gains. ”

King Rui answered, paused and said, "Xiao Jiu, my goal has been achieved, and no one will be able to threaten my personal safety in the future." In the next step, Xiao Jiu should also be clear. ”

Liu Tong looked at him, King Rui did not dodge, and said: "The imperial doctor said that my father's body is strong and dry, and when he had a stroke due to anger, he almost died. Now, although he regulates his body and actively calms his emotions, he has hurt the fundamentals, and even if he will not return to the West for the time being, he will only have a few years to live. ”

Liu Tong lowered his head slightly, not knowing what mood he was in.

Sad? It seems that there is a little.

Relieved? It seems that there is a little bit of it.

Liu Tong rubbed his hands together, and only said after a while: "The fifth brother will support his father and the emperor for the rest of his life, I am not worried." ”

King Rui sighed in a low voice: "Among the brothers who were let down by their father, maybe only Xiao Jiu, you will be sincerely sad after learning the news." ”

Liu Tong looked at him.

"When the abolished prince learned of this, he clamored to serve in front of his father, but the purpose is that you and I know that he wants his father to retract the edict of the abolished prince."

King Qi and King Li only sighed, probably thinking that there was no possibility of turning over.

"I wish the king is not in good health, he scolds and scolds every day, I don't care about him, he has no way, he slowly stopped, and after learning about it, he closed his door, as if to avoid suspicion."

King Cen laughed three times, saying that so many concubines who died early in the harem were waiting for their father to be lucky, including his biological mother, and said that his father had made them wait too long...... Fortunately, he still knew a little bit of proportion, and he didn't say it outside. ”

"The reactions of the other younger brothers are similar, they all watch the development of the court, and most of their eyes are fixed on me."

King Rui smiled bitterly: "After all, my father has so many sons, and everyone is not too sad about his condition, and you are the only one who is affectionate, and you can still be silent for a while and say a word of self-deception." ”

Liu Tong didn't know how to answer, so he could only be silent.

King Rui smiled and patted him on the shoulder: "Xiao Jiu, don't worry, the fifth brother won't let you not see the last side of your father." ”

Liu Tong grinned and said duplicitously: "I really don't care about this." ”

"Well, Fifth Brother knows."

King Rui did not refute him, and after saying this, the atmosphere was a little lighter.

"I was in a hurry last time, and I didn't talk to your two boys, what about them?"

Liu Tong shouted to the back of the courtyard, and after a while, Xiao Jingyang trotted over, and after entering the house, he hurriedly saluted people in a proper manner: "Yangyang has seen uncle." ”

King Rui stretched out his hand to hug him, and said with a smile: "This kid is really strong. ”

"I'm growing my body, and I'm eating a lot." Liu Tong smiled and said to Yang Yang: "This is the fifth uncle." ”

"Uncle Five."

Xiao Jingyang did not hesitate to call people, and said a little shyly: "Uncle Twelve and his younger brother are watching wild flowers in the backyard. ”

Rui Wang nodded: "Do you usually take your younger brother to play?" ”

"Yes." Xiao Jingyang nodded and said, "My brother is very clingy to me." ”

"Ling'er knows that Yangyang is soft on him, so he always uses his eldest brother as a shield." Liu Tong explained on the side: "Compared with Yangyang, Ling'er is much more lively and active. ”

Ruiwang didn't interact much with the child, and he didn't have much chat experience, so after chatting with Yangyang for a while, he let him play.

"Yangyang's eyes are good-looking, and your youngest son has the same eye color as him?"

"That's not true, Ling'er's eyes are the same as those of the Central Plains, brown and black." Liu Tong said: "But it's all good-looking." ”

Rui Wang smiled and nodded.

"I'll take a break today, and I'll stay here for a while."

Liu Tong naturally welcomed: "I will also fry two dishes, and then the fifth brother will try my craftsmanship." (To be continued.) )
