Chapter 45: Brotherly Love
When Tang Zhaoyu came back with the fish bones, he laughed at me.
The original face full of scars was covered by a pig-headed mask, and her bumpy figure was even covered by fat clothes, and she didn't know what Tang Zhaoyu stuffed into her, and her bloated body was three times the size of the original.
Zhan Xu didn't ask anything, and agreed to take the fish bone that turned into a pig bone on the road.
But the carriage is limited, there are only two carriages, and the current figure of the pig and fish bones has to occupy one carriage for one person, so Tangtang and I can only have one carriage with Zhan Xu.
There is no other way at the moment, but to wait until the next post station to prepare.
Now these two carriages were also found temporarily, and they were not spacious, and the three of us were a little cramped to sit down.
There are at least three days to go before the next safe station, these three days are really not free, Sugar Candy lowered her eyebrows and was pleasing to the eyes, dutifully playing the role of a little maid, my words and deeds were very restrained, and I was really choked enough.
Zhan Xu told me and Tangtang about some of his things over the years, and one of them piqued my interest.
Zhan Xu said that when he was 13 years old, he traveled out of the palace for the first time, and he also suffered a tragic assassination, and all the guards died that time, and only he and Zhan Xiao survived.
The people who came to assassinate were highly skilled, and there were only a handful of them among the five countries.
I asked about the person's physiognomy characteristics, and Zhan Xu's description was very similar to Bao.
I asked him how he had escaped, and he said that Zhan Xiao had fought so hard to save him from the Assassins, but he had injured his leg in the effort of saving him.
Oh?
I'm wondering, isn't he good? Walking is also normal, and I don't see lameness.
Zhan Xu smiled bitterly and rubbed my hair: "Second Emperor Brother, that's a prosthetic." β
"Originally, the concubine regarded him as my fierce rival, but after the royal brother's leg was abolished, the queen mother felt that he was no longer a threat to the throne, so she used some means to win him over."
Oh~
It dawned on me, no wonder...
No wonder Zhan Xu said that he had no ambition for the throne, it turned out that his leg had long been abolished...
The king of Zhannan will not pass on the throne to a prince who is physically disabled.
But there is still something wrong, according to the time of the assassination and Zhan Xu's description, the person who went to assassinate him back then should be Ah Bao, and it was the time when Ah Bao was seriously injured.
But the portrait I saw on him that day was obviously a portrait of Zhan Xiao!
One possibility is that Ah Bao is going to kill Zhan Xiao, Zhan Xiao took advantage of this opportunity to put this assassination on the third prince, since he is doomed to failure, then he naturally has to find a good way out.
The best way out is to let Zhan Xu owe him a great favor, and Ah Bao and Zhan Xiao later became friends because of something.
There is also a possibility, that is, everything was designed by Zhan Xiao, and it was a play that he and Ah Bao acted in, and the purpose was naturally to make Zhan Xu owe him this great favor.
But both of these possibilities are too illogical, the former is too difficult to do, and the latter is too costly.
Rao I grew up in a pear orchard, and I have always been very accurate in seeing people's minds, but I can't see through Zhan Xiao.
It's useless to think about this situation now, no matter what kind of situation Zhan Xiao is arranging, it is nothing more than a struggle for imperial power.
Since they are allies, cooperation is, and it is useless to think too much.
"So Zhan Xiao is supporting you now?"
Zhan Xu hesitated: "If I can, I'd rather he don't participate in anything, be free to be an idle noble son of the heavenly family, and enjoy the glory." β
"I told him privately that everything my mother does does not represent my attitude, no matter what he chooses to do, it is his freedom."
"Idle prince is not something anyone can do, third brother."
I smiled disdainfully: "As a prince, how can you be alone in the struggle for imperial power?" β
Zhan Xu nodded helplessly: "Ah Jin, you are always smart." β
Tangtang listened to it without speaking, and even pretended to be asleep, leaning back and forth on Zhan Xu.
Zhan Xu didn't pay attention, he was hit by Tangtang, and subconsciously flashed, Tangtang fell to the ground without leaning on it.
Sugar Candy woke up and hurriedly knelt on the ground: "The Third Highness atonements..."
I laughed secretly in my heart, this set of sleeping action is really smooth and flawless.
Zhan Xu frowned slightly, but he didn't say anything.
I've been busy on the road these days, and I'm sleeping outside at night, and I can't really do anything if I don't rest well.
I looked at where Tang Zhaoyu was, his head lowered and he was squeezing his eyebrows at me, it was very funny.
"Parking..."
The man outside the carriage stopped the carriage for unknown reasons.
"Tangtang, you go and see the pork bones, I still have something to discuss with the Third Highness."
Tang Zhaoyu pretended to be frightened and retreated from the carriage.
Accompanied by the guards, went to the carriage of the fishbone.
For the sake of convenience, I changed the name of the fishbone to a name that is very consistent with her current image: "Pigbone." β
I don't know if she'll hunt me down for this name if she's sobered up one day.
The thought of this woman's anger and anger that she wanted to kill me, but she couldn't kill me, I thought it was funny, and I couldn't help laughing.
"What is Ah Jin thinking, so happy?"
Only Zhan Xu and I were left in the carriage, and it was suddenly much more spacious.
I stretched: "Does Your Highness know who is in the carriage behind?" β
Zhan Xu didn't expect me to say this: "I said, you can do whatever you want." β
I suddenly wanted to test where his bottom line was for me, and approached him gloomily: "I've been studying puppetry recently, and that's the person I captured to practice puppetry." β
Zhan Xu was slightly stunned, with a complicated expression on his face, he looked at me for a long time and said, "I don't care who she is, why do you bother to make up these words with me to tease me like this." β
How not to believe it?
I grimaced: "How do you know it's fake?" Is it because I was kind when I was a child? β
Zhan Xu didn't speak.
"People will become, and the more miserable they are, the more they become. I am such a sinister and vicious person now, and I will do whatever it takes to achieve my goals, what should the Third Highness do? β
"Ah Jin! Don't talk about yourself! β
Zhan Xu was angry: "No matter how a person changes, her nature will not change." β
"You are kind by nature, and you will not do anything inhumane."
"How can it be cruel to be made into a puppet by others, and it is cruel to make others into a puppet in turn?"
Zhan Xu tried hard to control his emotions, and his lips were slightly bean: "If you can't forgive yourself for doing this, don't do it, why bother to say this about yourself." β
After that, Zhan Xu opened the curtain and went out, but he was angry and drove the carriage outside with the guards outside.
It's really big.
But I still didn't give up: "Third Highness, that person is my puppet, so I'm so insidious and vicious now, what can you do?" β
Zhan Xu didn't look back: "If you have to do these things, then you will do it, as long as you don't care, I will definitely stand with you!" β
"Ah Jin, if you want peace in the world, I will try to give you a peace in the world, if you think that this world is unfair to you, then I will accompany you to destroy this world."
"It's just that if you can do something you don't want to do, you can leave it to me! Don't get your hands dirty! β

I swear, he must have something to think of Shengge! No matter how you look at it, it's not a brother's kindness to his sister, no matter how you look at it, it's a person who has gone crazy for love!
