Chapter 78: Prince Wei's Decision
"Peng Yu! Peng Yu! The prince shouted at Peng Yu's back, and Peng Yu's back became farther and farther away, and finally disappeared.
The prince sighed and said to himself, "I promise! Don't hurt your mother, don't hurt your sister, wife and children! I'm waiting for you to come back! I believe you! ”
Outside the north gate, the cold wind was bitter, and the branches of the trees whistled under the blowing of the north wind, and the earth was gloomy. Prince Wei was isolated in the cold wind alone, as if he was the only one in this world.
As the sun sets, it looks like a dark red disc hanging in the sky. Around the red disc, the wind and clouds are surging, and it looks unpredictable.
After a long while, there was a rush of horses' hooves behind him.
"Prince! Prince! Prince! ……”
The guards in the Wei palace were ordered by the prince Wei Wuji to come over. Seeing that the prince was safe and sound, everyone was relieved.
"Prince! How is it here? What about Peng Yu? The escort at the head of the group hurriedly stepped forward to stand side by side with the prince and asked.
"He's gone! He went to the State of Qin! The prince didn't look at the interrogating guards, his eyes kept looking at the sunset in the west, and he said to himself.
"Went to the Qin State?" The leader of the group asked in surprise.
"He's an old Qin man! What about his mother? What about Peng Yu's mother? Is she still alive? Was she killed? Only then did the prince come back to his senses, looked at the leader of the guards with anxious eyes, and asked.
"Back to the Prince! She's not dead! The Lord didn't kill her! You have been held hostage by Peng Yu, and the Lord is afraid that if you kill her prince, your life will not be guaranteed......"
"He didn't hold me hostage! Who said he took me hostage? Is it the White Guard? The prince interrupted.
"White Guard? No! ......" the leader of the guard thought to himself: Why is it not hijacking? We've all seen it with our own eyes!
"The White Guard didn't kill her?"
"No?"
"My father didn't kill? Kill? Kill? The prince asked instinctively. But think about what the guard said just now, his father was worried that he didn't dare to kill Peng Yu's mother.
"The Lord didn't kill him, but put him in captivity! He also said that he was a man of troubled times! The leader of the guards said.
"Who?" The prince didn't understand what the guards were saying?
"Prince! It's the White Guard! One of the guards behind said with a smile on his face: "The white guard Niu Bi coaxed, but he was given an arm by Peng Yu, and he is already a waste person." The Lord thought that everything was the result of his troubled times, and did not kill him for the sake of his faithfulness to him, but put him in prison. ”
"What?" The prince felt that he didn't hear clearly, and asked, "Peng Yu wasted a white guard and an arm, when?" Yes? ”
"Back to the Prince's words! Just a moment ago, Peng Yu stabbed over with a flying knife, swept over the top of the lord's head, and destroyed one of the white guards' arms! ……”
"What?" When the prince heard this, he was so surprised that he didn't believe it? Why didn't he notice that? When did this happen? Is that what happened before?
"Yes! Prince! Peng Yu is credible! At that time, if he wanted to kill the Lord, it would have been very easy. The sword flew over the Lord's head and pierced the white guard's arm, destroying the white guard's arm! The leader of the guards said.
"This?" Knowing what happened, the prince was even more surprised.
Peng Yu's martial arts are too powerful, but it's a pity that such an excellent young man was driven away by his father and the white guards.
Thinking about the loss of such a good young man, the prince's tears fell again. Therefore! He also made a decision: he can't be weak anymore! Be tough! Whether facing his father or the white guard, or the officials in the court.
Oh, yes! If my father doesn't die, I will always be the crown prince!
Why should I be so weak? Why should I fear my father and the white guards and the officials? Don't? Am I going to be a prince for the rest of my life?
When I was the crown prince, I was so weak, and when I was the king of Wei in the future, there were still people who took me seriously?
I'm going to say no! I'm going to be myself!
The prince was ruthless in his heart: You must change your image! We must not be weak! Don't be afraid of others! I'm the Prince! I am the prince of Wei! I am the future King of Wei! If I'm too weak, will anyone listen to me in the future? They still think of me as a prince!
Under the protection of the guards, the crown prince returned to the Wei Palace safely.
King Wei had returned to the dormitory and was sitting in the living room sulking.
Originally! During the day, he spent most of his time in the study, and only returned to the dormitory at night.
Everything went back to the study as it was, as if nothing had happened.
Isn't it? There was a fight just now in the study, two guards died, and the white guards were abolished, and it was full of blood.
Furthermore! Sitting there is reminiscent of the scene at that time. Thinking of the scene at that time, especially the scene where the flying knife thrown by Peng Yu whistled overhead, King Wei would tremble.
If Peng Yu wants to kill him? He's dead!
Every time he thought about it, King Wei would be so scared that he couldn't do it.
On the side of the dormitory, King Wei has his own bedroom, not in the residence of the queen or princess. The queen and princess's rooms are also here, not in the same house. Other words! This side of the dormitory is a large courtyard.
In general! Outsiders are not allowed to enter the dormitory, including officials in the court. The dormitory is the life of the inner family, where can others easily enter?
But! Ministers and cronies are allowed to enter. Personal guards are accessible! The crown prince and the princes can enter at will.
When the prince came to the study, and when he saw that his father was not there, he went to his father's bedchamber. His family members are also in this compound. All the family members of the King of Wei are in the same courtyard. It's not just about showing the family being reconciled, it's about safety. And also! If anyone rebels, it will be convenient to arrest their families.
In the face of rebellion, the six relatives did not recognize it. Once it is determined who is plotting rebellion, their families will be punished.
After inheriting the title, the other family members of the ancestor in the dormitory had to move out of the dormitory, and arrange the palace and residence separately. On this side of the dormitory, only the king and his family lived. Unless! You give up the bed of your father, and build your own bedchamber.
"Father! I am back! The crown prince came to the living room of his father's bedroom and said to King Wei, who was sulking on it.
The king of Wei did not say a word and ignored it as if he had not heard or seen it.
"Father! I am back! Father! The prince said again.
He knows! Father was angry with him.
"You're coming back, are you still glorious?" Only then did King Wei raise his head and look directly at the crown prince and asked.
"Father!"
"Where's Peng Yu?"
"He's gone to Qin!"
"He went to Qin? What did he do in Qin? ”
"He's an old Qin man!"
"Old Qin?"
"Father! Pardon his mother and sister as slaves! Father! I promised him! ……”
"Presumptuous!" King Wei patted the table in front of him and said, "Can the laws of our Wei Kingdom be changed at will?" ”
