Although the sun is shining, the temperature in early spring is still warm and cold. Under the bright sunshine, the spring flowers are in full bloom.

Dotted with yellow-orange-orange flowers, glistening in the sun.

The prince sat down on a stone slab beside him.

motioned to Qing'er, who was following him, to sit down with him.

The prince pointed to the spring flowers that were in full bloom and showed Qing'er.

"I planted the most lush flowers last year, and I never thought they would grow so well and bloom so well. I thought last year's frost would freeze them to death, but I didn't want them to come alive and grow more and more lush. ”

"That's it! It is! ”

Father-in-law Su Shi on the side cheered.

"Miss Qing'er, you see that piece was planted by a slave, and now it looks sparse. It's the same spring flower, why is the growth so different? After thinking about it, I realized that the spring flowers planted by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince were stained with the blessings of His Royal Highness the Prince. ”

"Your mouth is the best at making people happy!"

The prince smiled.

It's a rare smile.

"The slave thinks that what Father-in-law Su Shi said has some truth!"

Qing'er smiled.

"As the saying goes, the most humane nature of mountains, rocks, plants and trees is grass and trees, a slave and maid see, it must be His Royal Highness the Prince who planted these flowers and plants with the most heart, touched them, so, no matter what they experienced in the future, they will work very hard to live! It will be so lush and lush! ”

The prince's gaze wandered.

With the silent recitation: "No matter what they go through, they will work hard to live!" No matter what ...... experienced"

He was silent for a moment.

There was a glimmer of light in his sad eyes that had long been hard to find.

"This is still the case with grass and trees, let alone those with firm intentions."

Father-in-law Su Shi, who was accompanying him, Qing'er saw that he had this awakening, and his heart, which had been worried for a long time, suddenly relaxed.

I don't know if he will get better after today.

Perhaps, so that his life will not be so miserable, and the life of the minions around him will be a little better.

"It's time! It's time to wrap it up! ”

Looking at the spring flowers in the garden, the prince sighed.

"Time has seen the sun, perhaps, I have been obsessed with dark days for too long."

Qing'er, Father-in-law Su Shi can finally smile with confidence.

The prince looked at Qing'er.

"Qing'er, you know what? Among my many royal brothers, I like and appreciate the most my fifth brother Jing Wang Li Lu. Sometimes I envy him! ”

Could it be that the prince is talking about Li Lu, the king of Jing, who guards Nanjun?

The only thing Qing'er knows is that this person is brave and good at fighting, and the art of war is like a god, it is said that the only thing he doesn't like is the government affairs of the imperial court, and he also automatically asked Ying to guard the border for the Tang Dynasty.

"Is it King Jing who is guarding Nanjun?"

Qing'er asked tentatively.

"The slave has heard a little bit about it, but it doesn't know much about it. Why does the prince like King Jing so much? What's so special about King Feijing? ”

The prince smiled.

"There is no other, it's just that King Jing has a straightforward personality and true temperament! Since I was a child, I have had a good relationship with him. At that time, I was not the crown prince, but the second prince. We often ride horses and shoot arrows together, that is, from that time on, we made a vow together that when we grow up in the future, we will be a useful true prince for the infinite territory of the Tang Dynasty! Later, King Jing fulfilled his childhood promise and is now a true general of Nanjun who fears his enemies. And I am getting farther and farther away from my dream, and for some reason, I have become the crown prince, the nominal prince of the Tang Dynasty. ”

The prince said that when he became the prince, he was so helpless.

He thought of his former dream, but sighed at his fate, like a mistake of fate.

"If the prince misses King Jing, won't he be able to see him from time to time? Usually he will come back a few times, can't His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also have a friendship with King Jing? ”

Although Qing'er saw his thoughts, she couldn't share his pain.

Maybe trying to divert his subject and make him forget about his unattainable dream.

The prince let out a long sigh, and his eyebrows furrowed violently.

"It's different, it's not the same anymore! It's been different since the moment I became the crown prince! For some reason, he has become so humble that even when he comes back occasionally, he rarely pesters me as much as he used to. When we rode together and shot arrows, he never beat me again, which wasn't the case before, when we used to have a tie when we were in a match. But he is the general of Nanjun, a general who terrifies the enemy, how can he lose to me, the crown prince who is confined in this palace every day. It was his intention, and he didn't dare to win me, because I was the crown prince. ”

He suddenly smirked.

"I became the crown prince, but I have nothing, not even my best friend from the past. Sometimes, I miss the old days, when we rode horses and shot arrows together......"

The prince's eyes were full of sadness, as if this qiē was not what he wanted.

Qing'er met his gaze, not knowing what to say.

Perhaps, life is not always as good as you once imagined! Although His Royal Highness the Crown Prince lost his childhood dream, he has now become His Royal Highness the Crown Prince admired by everyone and the future prince of the Tang Dynasty. In this way, the prince will have more opportunities to benefit the people and benefit the people of the world! Perhaps, this is the fate of each to do its job. If all the princes go to the border, then who will rule the world? ”

"Dominating the world?"

The prince couldn't help but smile.

"Qing'er, do you think I have that right?"

He pointed to the caged bird.

"I'm like it. Sometimes I envy my fourth emperor brother Li Jing, the king of Han, who can still run around the world, but I can't go anywhere, so I can only stay in this palace and be the prince! ”

Speaking of the fourth prince, Li Jing, the king of Han, he is a capable and leisurely lord.

The emperor put him in charge of the household department, and he not only kept the household department in order, but also had a lot of free time.

He actually used his free time to run all over the world and started a silk business, and the business was doing well.

It is said that he not only raised silkworms himself, but also knotted silkworms himself, and also had a good skill in bleaching and dyeing.

Once on the queen's birthday, he also offered silk brocade woven by himself.

Qing'er said: "King Han not only does his part of the job well, but also achieves his hobby to such a high level, which is really rare!" ”

The crown prince smiled: "My father also said about him, saying that he was too focused on those things, do you guess how he answered?" ”

"How did you answer that?"

"He said, 'If my father thinks that my silk is not good, my son is willing to quit his job in the household department and devote himself to the silk business.' ”

The prince laughed.

"Do you know, his answer really changed his father's face. As long as he manages the household well, the rest will follow him. ”

"I never thought that someone would be obsessed with this kind of process for their own preferences."

Qing'er couldn't help but sigh.

"Sometimes, I envy him too."

The prince sighed.

"At least, he is doing what he loves and is not wasting his life."

Talking about King Jing and King Han, Qing'er was very interested in wanting to know what the prince said about his third brother, King Guangling.

Why do they seem to have unsolvable nodules between them, what is it for?

Qing'er asked tentatively: "What about the third prince, King Guangling?" ”
